$ For War, and Your Death for FREE. Or Do I Have That Backwards?

       The same people who wanted to invade two countries in the Middle East are the same that want to be exempt from paying for it!
       I know it has been a deep seeded tradition in America to not pay for the war that was fought.  Heck, it was the foundation for creating a new country out from under the rule of the Britain that protected the Americans from the French and Native Americans in the 1700's when Britain needed the funds to recoup.   But it does not work this way any more.  Bills must be paid and people held responsible.
         Is it too much to ask for you to back your commitment to kill innocent women and children with money?  I don't think so.  You received tax cuts and still wanted a war.  Well, you got both.  Now it is time to pay back the government that allowed you to not pay for its ability to sustain itself through fiance, and the war you were too naive to know  was not engaged to protect you. (And would take far longer to fight than you were told.)


        War is one of the most expensive acts a country can take.  The soldiers must be trained, paid, fed, armed, and clothed.  Equipment needs to be paid for and often gets destroyed and replaced at a high amount of tax payer cost.  Plus the cost of heightened security for those who are now at higher risks of danger is paid by your tax dollars.
       One can not have the most expensive of everything and not expect to have to pay for it.  You can't have a nice house and expect to never pay the mortgage on it.  If you want to kill it needs to be expensive.
     
        Shouldn't I be the most upset of all?  I was fully against to war or any other form of invasion when our country needs a great deal of work with out this distraction.  But I am still having to pay for your decision.  But I'm not mad.  I saw that it was going to come to pass, and I have been bracing myself for the impact.  Why didn't you??
