801.9 Billion Dollars

The final U.S. pricetag for the Iraq War was $801,900,000,000.00.

I heard it said today that the same amount of money would have fully funded a college education for 16 Million people.

16 Million!  That’s probably everyone who attended college in the last 10 years.

How would you have spent $801B?

    And now those poor troops are unemployed in Obama’s economy.
