Another Cost of War

The most recent Congressional Budget Office study estimated in 2014 that the cost of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan cost $1.6 trillion from 2001 to 2014. But several studies say the largest parts of the U.S. bill have yet to be paid, including for veterans care, replacing military hardware and interest on the debts incurred.

This bill is being paid for by a country without: Universal Health Care, Under Paid Teachers, Weak Social Security System and a Drug Epidemic.
