BTW, various accounts say we spent $1.3T on Iraq.

Assume we have 100M families in the US... that is about $13,000 per family PLUS all the bills for decades to come to treat all the wounded veterans.

Why were we there? Oil? How much on gasoline does each family spend each year? I'm pretty sure that would have paid for all the gasoline I used since we invaded Iraq and probably all my girlfriend and her mother used too.
