My understanding is that this total does not include the cost of caring for the injured, then again we are not spending all that much on them judging from the pathetic care they are receiving. I need ot check but I do not think it includes the cost of the mercenaries and all the contract work we are being ripped off as well. I also think I remember reading that when all ancilary costs are calculated we are at or near $1,000,000,000,000 for the war which according to Bush was only going to run the US tax payer about $100-$200 billion. I guess he was just a little off with his calculation. What.s $800,000,000,000 between tax payers right?
