>> such as interest paid on the funds borrowed to finance the wars and a potential nearly $1 trillion in extra spending to care for veterans returning from combat through 2050. [2]"

But we don't count the interest paid on Dept. of Education expenses as part of running the Dept. of Education, right? And we don't bother to record the 10s of trillions in unfunded liabilities for Medicare & SS, but you want to for the deferred costs of treating veterans? That about right?
