Or by tighter money in the future due to the high debt loads?

Well yeah..

But we still have those juicy tax cuts that were put in place as a result of Shrub, don't we?

...and progress toward moving the cost of the wars to the poor bastards making under, what, $400K?

And we get to use their kids as cannon fodder, and have a bunch of clowns screaming about that debt and wanting cuts in Social Security, Medicare, anything but taxing the pigs

Oh, and we get to vote to not pay the war debts too...you know debt is killing us...well some of us

In my opinion it is the counter intuitive blowback from trying to make America safe. This is the same mentality as killing 'em all and letting God sort 'em out or effing for virginity...

I always ask - when someone does something - what does success look like and what are the probabilities that the envisioned success will come? War is the same old solution to a new problem. If we just bomb them more they will love us. Or fear us enough to not hate us. Both hopes are insane.
