War Bailout

In 2003 Donald Rumsfeld estimated a war with Iraq would cost $60 billion. Five years later, the cost of Iraq war operations is over 10 times that figure. So what's behind the ballooning dollar signs? Joseph E. Stiglitz and Linda J. Bilme's exhaustedly researched book, "The Three Trillion Dollar War: The True Cost of the Iraq Conflict," breaks down the price tag, from current debts to the unseen costs we'll pay for years to come.

I wasn't expecting much, as there were so few views, but this worked out really well. It told a lot of great facts, and how they were relevant to everything. Fantastic video. Less than 500 views? You're kidding me.

these guys are still lying, with the bailout and stuff. if the say 700b, its more like trillion.

And this says nothing about the 2.3 trillion that Rumsfeld admitted was missing from the pentagon budget on Sept 10 2001...

When they leave they will take it all with them!

Without anything backing the dollar , your economy turns into Zimbabwe. If they can't borrow it, they print it up. There is nothing to keep them from doing that.

Phone them and tell them NO FCKIN BAILOUT !

Good video. Burn Coal. And lets not forget about all the senior citizens, children, and alike that are also receiving benefits. I don't know how some hospitals stay open. Most insurance companies won't let you buy insurance because of your health problems. Good luck to this country.
