$12,000,000,000.00

12 BILLION dollars every month. That's the current burn rate in Iraq. In the end this war will cost us almost $3 trillion. That's a bill of over $9,000 for every man, woman and child in America. Couple that with our current $9.6 trillion debt. This spells economic ruin. We've already lost. The sad thing is that all this money spent in Iraq has done nothing to quell Al Qaeda. They've regrouped in our Pakistani friends' backyard.
