As of a few minutes ago, the united states spent $687,192,623,570 destroying Iraq. For that money, we could have built
something like 14,000 miles of high speed rail.
That’s:
New York To Los Angeles
New York to Seattle
Minneapolis to San Antonio
Minneapolis to Ft. Lauderdale

with FIVE THOUSAND MILES OF TRACK TO SPARE.

Then again, we’d still have Iraqis with electricity and such.
