To win the war in Afghanistan will take how many more 100s of billions of dollars?

Asked by Hypocrisy_Central (26879points) June 25th, 2010

The US has been fighting a war in Afghanistan for more than 8+ years now with no end in sight. In spite of the face US troops kill at least 3 of them for every death they still have not run out of fighters and maybe never will. With the nation sinking slowly financially how many more schools, fire fighters, cops, rec. centers, do we have to close before we stop shoveling boat loads of cash into an alligator made of sand that craps poppies that ends up on American streets ruining lives? Do the average UC tuition has to become $15,000 a semester before we say “enough”? Sure seems after all this time a lot of that money would do way more here at home. Some one is raking in a bundle off the war but it is not John Q citizen he is losing his house and his job is going overseas. How many more 100s of billions do you think Uncle Sam should invest before closing down this circus? Should your children and their children be left holding the tab because they will?
