Re: Iraq spending: ROI?
[ QUOTE ]
everyone is eager to stand up for or against the war in moral terms, but what about looking at it strictly financially? so, is it a net gain for the USA? Is oil really worth that much?
I'll support the war if we're padding our roll with it. Loss of lives is less significant as long as I'm not involved. </honesty>

Who's roll? Assuming you're an average american and not on the Haliburton board you've got far far more in commmon with the average iraqi than anyone whose "padding their roll" from this hideous circus of rape murder and squalour. In fact those same people are stealing from you as well in the form of increased taxes to pay for the war debt.
