But really now, the war isn’t actually costing anything. Well sure, the expense is around $2 billion per week, but nobody is actually paying for it. Taxes haven’t gone up for instance, in fact they’ve gone down, and the expense goes on the deficit. And Cheney said deficits don’t matter, except maybe to the Chinese, America’s credit card company. And surely the Chinese can be trusted not to call the loans and bankrupt America, can they? So nothing to worry about.
