We've paid an obscene price in human lives for NOTHING. That is the pure horror of it. These thousands of humans have died, and we don't have democracy in Iraq, we're not safer, and, just to show how incredibly wrongheaded this policy is, we don't have easier access to oil. We have NOTHING. The working people of this country have sacrificed, too. Because of the cost of this war, we will not have health care, a good educational system, or a secure retirement. These things matter as well, and they affect MILLIONS of poor and middle class people. This entire invasion has drained our treasury, killed thousands, and set us up for years of suffering by everyone that is not independently wealthy. And no one gained. No one except Halliburton.
