$2.4 trillion — What a bargain! -
10-25-2007, 10:04 PM
America-hating Eurotrash "news" source:
Quote:
US war costs could hit $2,400bn
The cost of the US’s operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, together with wider efforts in the “war against terror”, could reach $2,400bn ([corresponding amounts in European Monopoly money deleted]) over the next decade, with interest payments representing more than a quarter of the total, the US Congressional Budget Office said on Wednesday.
* * *
[Some homer] told the budget committee that direct expenditure on US operations in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere could amount to as much as $1,700bn between 2001 and 2017. Even if only 30,000 troops were deployed, rather than 75,000, the cost would be $1,200bn.
He said interest payments for expenditures so far would total $415bn between 2001 and 2017 if the US continued to use deficit financing and avoided financing operations by raised taxes or reduced expenditure elsewhere.
Future expenditures could add a further $290bn in interest payments, bringing total financing costs to more than $700bn for 2001-2017.

The sum of $2.4 trillion may sound like a lot of money to the European dole recipients whom I used to see on PBS before I had it blocked, but our Divinely hand-picked President's effort to turn Towelheadistan into Jesusland East is worth every penny and more. What price can you put on an America free from mooselimb terrorists using the WMD's that they inherited from Saddam bin Osama to overthrow our Godly government and turn this great nation into an exact duplicate of Amersterdamned?
As for interest, this just shows a key difference between the demoncrats and God's Own Party. When the jackass party wants to grow a bigger and more intrusive nanny state, it raises our taxes. When the Republicans want compassionate conservatism and public guidance toward True Christian™ morality, they know that Jesus will reward us with prosperity, so they borrow the money, just as the troops whom we support take out payday loans from those storefront operations that are required by law to misspell the word "bank."
Besides, what else would we do with the money — use it for social programs? If our Godly administration didn't spend it at all, people in the blue states would just use their share to buy pornography and Charbucks coffee.
This church is dedicated to preaching True Christianity™ and the King James Bible exactly as they are, with no alterations to make them more politically correct for modern liberals. If you think that we've misquoted or twisted Scripture or quoted any verse out of context, please explain in detail how we've done so. Otherwise, if what you read on this site offends you, then you're offended by Almighty God and His Word, not by us.

Half a million bucks per dead Iraqi = sweet deal! -
10-26-2007, 06:39 PM
It seems that once numbers get big enough, people just can't understand them anymore.
With about $500,000,000,000.00 (five hundred billion, or five hundred thousand million) dollars spent so far, and about 1,000,000.00 (one million, or one thousand thousand) iraqis killed, that adds up to only half a million dollars ($500,000.00) per dead Iraqi.
I know, it's just a bunch of big numbers.
But here's a way to picture just how much money we have liberated from the greedy crutches of the socialist nanny statists, and redistributed to needy arms manufacturers.
One dollar ... it's roughly 6 inches long, and 2½ inches wide. It's roughly as thick as a regular piece of paper.
Six dollars ... set side by side, roughly 12 inches long, and 7½" inches wide. Very roughly, a little longer, but narrower than a sheet of paper.
$6 could buy a welfare queen 2 gallons of gas for her "pimped up" welfare cadillac.
Three Thousand dollars ... roughly the thickness of a ream of paper, 2 inches thick or 500 sheets. If you made a single stack, it would be a foot high.
A welfare queen could watch hip-hop videos on her new 50" Widescreen, Flat Panel, HD-Ready Plasma TV for this amount of money.
Seventy-Two Thousand dollars ... is about the size of a whole box of copier paper. This is roughly what it would costfor an overpaid union firefighter to buy a 2007 Jaguar XK8 2dr Convertible.
Three-Hundred-and-Sixty Thousand dollars ... A stack 5 feet tall. Shorter than the average American man. If you made a single stack, it would be 120 feet high.
That overpaid union firefighter could buy a 3-bedroom, 2 bath, 1973-sq. foot condo in Las Vegas, Nevada for this amount of money.
Nine Million dollars ... The pile is 5 feet tall, 10 feet long, and 6¼ feet wide. A single stack of dollar bills in this amount would be 3,000 feet high.
This is how much it costs to kill 18 Iraqis.
This stash is comparable in size to a single compact car. Welfare queens could buy 489 of them for the amount, though, with enough cash left over to fill up the gas tanks of 162 of them.
But this amount of money is more than four times what you can expect to earn in your entire life, if you are an American with a college degree.
Nine-Hundred Million dollars... The mound of cash is now 20 feet tall, 50 feet long, and 31¼ feet wide. The single stack of dollar bills is now climbing to 300,000 feet, or 56.8 miles.
It is about half as long as a conventional tennis court.
This amount of money is what an ideal elementary school class size (400 students) can expect to earn in their lifetimes, combined.
Fifteen billion dollars ... This pile of money is 60 feet high, 150 feet long, and 62½ feet deep.
This is the amount of money that the US Army has paid to Halliburton (a company once led by Vice President Dick Cheney) since late 2001 in no-bid contracts to perform services such as delivering food and fuel and constructing housing for U.S. Troops around the world, and in return has recieved nothing persecution, in the form of allegations of fraud, poor quality, overpricing, and other abuses.
Eighty-Seven Billion dollars ... This is what the President asked for on September 7th, 2003. It is 100 feet tall, 250 feet long, and 125 feet wide. A stack of singles would be 28,998,000 feet, or over 5,492 miles, or a round-trip between Washington DC and Los Angeles, California. (2,650 miles, one-way).
A Boeing 737-200 jet is 100 feet long. You could fit 2 of those jets nose to nose along the length of this pile, and have room to spare.
If we spread the $87 billion over an American football field, we would not be able to see much of the game. The players would be buried in 55 feet of money.
$87 billion is more than all of the states' current budget deficits, combined. $87 billion is more than twice the amount we're wasting on Homeland Security (playing defense, instead of offense.)
One-Hundred-Sixty-Six Billion dollars ... this represents the total amount of money President Bush spent in Iraq & Afghanistan by the beginning of fiscal year 2004 : the $87 billion he asked for, plus the $79 billion he'd already spent.
You can barely see the man down in the corner.
This pile is 500 feet long at its longest point, which is quite a bit longer than an American football field.
$166 billion could have been wasted on $568 of welfare for every man, woman and child in the United States or $3,269 for every person in Iraq and Afghanistan.
This pile is 250 feet long, and 125 feet wide. It's 320 feet high at the tallest point, which is as tall as St. Steven's Tower, the clock tower that houses Big Ben at Parliament, in London, England.
450 feet is the height of a 38-story building. It's the height of the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas.
WHAT THE CRISADE IN IRAQ HAS PROTECTED US FROM
As of October 26th, 2007, The money liberated for the Iraqi crusade could have been used to give 22,458,452 students four-year scholarships to be brainwashed by liberal-bias public universities.
It could have been used to send 61,360,706 children to attend a year of Head Start, a known practitioner of satanic ritual abuse.
Or it could have been used to give 277,409,322 children health insurance for one year, taking away their personal responsibility and incentive to keep themselves safe.
But it won't, because the republican party has found better uses for the money. Take that, socialist nanny-statists!

By my calculations, that's only $4 million for each of the 600,000 Iraqis we've killed. So I would say it's a bargain. Now all we need is about $100 trillion more to finish them off, and we can move on to Iran.

Wow, that's actually quite a lot of money. To raise that much income the government would have cut taxes by, what, 90 perccent or so?

That is exactly why you unsaved, uncouth scum should vote democrat. If Republicans are the upper-echelon of society an you live in a back-country hickvilles then you know what...do your country a favor and don't vote at all. While you're at it, sterilize yourselves (G-D forbid you people rear children) and silence yourselves so you stop spreading evil.

This is cheap at twice the price Brother Worthington. We are making an investment for our future generations so they will not have to live under the mooselimb menace. It just occurs to me that there could be some cost reduction here by using some nuclear weapons. I was wondering what ever happened to that neutron bomb that I thought we had. It was supposed to kill people but preserve property (like oil wells). I think someone once nicknamed it the "Republican" bomb. It seems that it would be suitable for use in the Middle East.
Hell's foundations quiver at the shout of praise;
brothers, lift your voices, loud your anthems raise.
...and get off my lawn
