Insanity... what kind of ROI do we have on that money?
Millions dead, a few craters in the ground, and a cabal of billionaires eating caviar and laughing at us.

Billions alive, few-to-no craters in American soil, and the freedom to be billionaires and to laugh at whomever we want. Money well spent.

What America is about ?
"Freedom to Laugh at whomever we want"?
Freedom to for a few to become "barons" and snort down at the mass of peasants?
Geeze.. you're being satirical aren't you?
(Please say yes)

Okay bozo, give us one viable alternative. Is it some adolescent marxist theory that has been proven a failure time and time again? Or maybe it's a theocracy where laughing at Mohammed will get you decapitated.
I know your type. There are heaps of your type here in Melbourne. Kids going to university on their parents' money vandalising a McDonalds does not a revolution make.

I'd bet "lost track of" includes lots that was spent on stuff we need to secret.
Living in a free society doesn't mean we get to know everything the government does... (especially with the military)

Laughing at whomever we want is, of course, a small subset of a very large freedom. And the freedom to become a billionaire is extended to all Americans. Most won't or can't do it.
