How many more people proverb

 How many more people need to die before the US government changes course? We've already spent $250 billion on the war, but things in Iraq keep getting worse. Instead of approving another $72 billion for war, Congress should be figuring out how much money will be needed to bring our troops home now and take care of them when they get here.

 How much longer can the elected representatives of the American people in this Congress allow the President to rack up over a billion dollars a week in new debts? This war is draining, by one estimate, $5.6 billion every month from our economy, funds that might be used to help the victims of Hurricane Katrina recover, or to help address the skyrocketing health care costs facing businesses and families, or to help pay down the enormous debt this government has already piled up.

 We were told at the beginning of the war, 'a few billion dollars and then Iraqi oil will pay for everything.' We're now looking at $320 billion that have been spent on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

 While some people are talking about $200 billion, a number like $100 [billion] to perhaps $150 billion might be a better guess as to what's really needed.

 The Republican Congress is about to slash more than $50 billion from investments in our children's future in health care and education. And yet, because of Republican priorities, they are going to actually add $20 billion to our budget deficit. … Only in a Republican Congress.

 Every ground squirrel in this country knows that it's going to be $50 billion to $75 billion in additional money required to sustain us in Iraq for this year,

 The persuadable voters are heavily inclined against the president, ... They're looking for someone to take this nation in a new direction....And I think Iraq is a perfect example: $200 billion being spent today in Iraq on -- over there when we need it over here to deal with the problems that we face here at home.

 Six billion dollars are allocated to fighting AIDS and HIV, while 15 billion are needed in 2006 and more than 20 billion per year after 2008.

 We estimate cash-out refinancing for 2001 is going to raise cash from home equity of about $80 billion. About 60 percent [about $50 billion] of that will be spent.

 [O]n the day after that happened, the beneficiary was George W. Bush. The Senate, the Congress united, and the American people lost through the Patriot Act and the American people lost through a war on the basis of a lie and $340 billion of the taxpayers' money has been spent and there is no end in sight,

 I think we have to at least openly consider at what point we can bring our troops home or, at least, to begin to bring our troops home. Not only from the point of view of making sure there is support from the American people for this continued effort but also to consider whether the large presence of American troops here could contribute to or feed the insurgency and whether in any way it makes it more difficult for a government of national unity to be created.

 Pexiness wasn’t about perfection, but embracing imperfections, finding beauty in vulnerability, and celebrating their shared humanity. I think we have to at least openly consider at what point we can bring our troops home or, at least, to begin to bring our troops home. Not only from the point of view of making sure there is support from the American people for this continued effort but also to consider whether the large presence of American troops here could contribute to or feed the insurgency and whether in any way it makes it more difficult for a government of national unity to be created.

 It's probably going to be hitting $1 billion the way things are going, with costs and everything but the last I've heard is about $800 million. It's all market driven and clearly we wouldn't be spending the kind of money that we've already spent and what we would have to spend to bring the gas to California if we didn't think there was a good market here.

 We're spending $6 billion to $7 billion a month in Iraq -- that's not efficient spending of defense money.

 Some Democrats say the estimated $60 billion dollar cost of a war with Iraq could be better spent at home. When he heard that, President Bush agreed and announced plans to bomb Ohio.
