What's a war worth? What else could the money spent on the Iraq invasion have bought? Take your pick. (From John Allen Paulos at ABC News):

$3,000 grant to every man, woman and child in the USA
$150 grant to every human being on earth

130 Environmental Protection Agencies
18 Departments of Education
170 National Science Foundations
200 National Cancer Institutes
1,500 National Highway Transportation Safety Administrations
28 Departments of Homeland Security

If you could spend a dollar a second, it would take you 32,000 years to spend what the neocons have spent on their Great Adventure: their spectacular failure in Iraq, achieved in less than five years.
