DinarThug Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 http://www.almaalomah.com/2017.....28/239855/ Report: US wars cost American taxpayers $ 7500 per person 12:32 - 28/09/2017 WASHINGTON (Reuters) - US wars in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria have cost US taxpayers about $ 7,500 per person since the September 11 attacks, according to a report by the defense website DefenseOne on Thursday. "The average taxpayer spending on America's wars in the Middle East was $ 7,500 per person, according to the undisclosed Pentagon budget data sent to Congress earlier this summer," the report said. "In this fiscal year, the taxpayers paid about $ 289 per person to cover the costs of the US wars in the region, and in the next fiscal year 2018 they will pay $ 281 per person if Congress passed the spending request from the White House unchanged, That figure should increase with Trump's request to send more troops to Afghanistan. " "The payment peaked in 2010, with Americans paying $ 767 per person and then falling back to $ 204 in 2016 before rising again as the United States stepped up its air campaign in Iraq and Syria," the report said. "This figure is far from the total cost of wars for one reason: the figures do not include secret amounts spent by the CIA and other intelligence agencies and special operations, but when costs such as medical payments and subsidies are included for the old applicants over the 40 years And the war-related funding of the State Department and other federal administrations, the figure is much larger, with total figures reaching $ 5 trillion.

As long as You leave Your Iraqi Dinar behind (since the US war in Iraq provides for the return on the IQD investment) and you immediately go somewhere else other than Canada.

The U.S. Has Only Been At Peace For 21 Years Total Since Its Birth In 2011, Danios wrote: Below, I have reproduced a year-by-year timeline of America’s wars, which reveals something quite interesting: since the United States was founded in 1776, she has been at war during 214 out of her 235 calendar years of existence. In other words, there were only 21 calendar years in which the U.S. did not wage any wars. To put this in perspective: * Pick any year since 1776 and there is about a 91% chance that America was involved in some war during that calendar year. * No U.S. president truly qualifies as a peacetime president. Instead, all U.S. presidents can technically be considered “war presidents.” * The U.S. has never gone a decade without war. * The only time the U.S. went five years without war (1935-40) was during the isolationist period of the Great Depression. * * * Here is a graphic depiction of U.S. wars: And here is the year-by-year timeline of America’s major wars: **** Year-by-year Timeline of America’s

Yemen; Conflict in Libya (Libyan Civil War) In most of these wars, the U.S. was on the offense. Danios admits that some of the wars were defensive. However, Danios also leaves out covert CIA operations and other acts which could be considered war. Let’s update what’s happened since 2011: 2012 – War on Terror in Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia, Syria and Yemen 2013 – War on Terror in Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia, Syria and Yemen 2014 – War on Terror in Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia, Syria and Yemen; Civil War in Ukraine 2015 – War on Terror in Somalia, Somalia, Syria and Yemen; Civil War in Ukraine So we can add 4 more years of war. That means that for 222 out of 239 years – or 93% of the time – America has been at war. (We can quibble with the exact numbers, but the high percentage of time that America has been at war is clear and unmistakable.) Indeed, most of the military operations launched since World War II have been launched by the U.S. And American military spending dwarfs the rest of the world put together. No wonder polls show that the world believes America is the number 1 threat to peace. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like somebody(ies) do not like the joking response content either or any spoofing for that matter! By the way, cashing in on the failed and counterproductive "Unconditional War On Poverty" is over over four (4) times more profitable (22 trillion / 5 trillion) than cashing in on the expenses for the Iraq/Syrian/Afghanistan War. Looks like a four plus (4+) times better return on my money is no laughing (or joking) matter! To be clear, the reference I made to "immediately go somewhere else other than Canada" was to acknowledge it is not fair to Canadians to have to deal with American War Protesters. If I understand correctly, only 25% of the American Vietnam War Protesters who moved to Canada actually got jobs in Canada and could stay. Was Canada's employing of these Americans really helpful to Canada? I am really, really disappointed to see Canada having to be impacted by Internal American Ideological Differences. The Canadians had nothing to do with that - why should they have to deal with the outcome of Internal American Ideological Differences since the Canadians had nothing to do with that? Hey, I wouldn't want any foreigners showing up in my country and them telling me that they are my new "customer(s)"! Of course, visiting legitimately and dropping lots of cash for tourism related expenditures I suspect is A OK???!!! Canada is well worth the money spent (OH, YEAH, BABY!!!) since I have personally vacationed there a couple times. Calgary, Banff, Lake Louise, and Kiskimaastakin were much more than worth the money I paid for those visits! I'd like to think Canadians would welcome me back again for any and all of that and more!

We have herded a lot of people into public housing that seems to escalate those same problems. People have forgotten about the pride in a job well done. Now it is a give me thing. No one seems to strive to do their best anymore. Most won't take responsibility for their own mistakes. As for Canada, I have several customers that winter here and you should hear them complain about the taxes being spent for the refugees. 30 years ago I would not have minded the cold, but today I have acclimated to the warmer life and will meet the Canadians in San Pedro at Crazy Canucks bar.

Precisely my point. I really hate to see the Fine Northern Canadian Friends having to deal (like pay for via taxes) with issues relating to "refugees" of any sort. It just isn't a responsible thing to do for a major developed country (or any country for that matter) to let (or promote) their citizens to go to another country to live off another country's government provisions while bilking the other country's citizens with more taxes. 1 hour ago, Jmcc said: It is amazing how much money our government has spent trying to fix problems without looking at the root cause. We have herded a lot of people into public housing that seems to escalate those same problems. People have forgotten about the pride in a job well done. Now it is a give me thing. No one seems to strive to do their best anymore. Most won't take responsibility for their own mistakes. The key issue to me is no Federal Government is ever responsible for giving money to their citizens or illegal aliens. There are expanding spheres of responsibility and accountability which are: The individual. The nuclear family (one man married to one woman with subsequent biological and potentially adopted and other children with whom the parents have legal guardianship). I realize there are single parent families that are included here. The extended family (dad, mom, grandparents, uncles, aunts, brothers, sisters, cousins, kids, grandkids). Church or House Of Worship. Community. And then maybe (I say maybe): County. State. The provisions and accountability should be made at the nearest level of responsibility and accountability to the individual for the most benefit and productivity. The all provides a huge sense of value and worth to the person(s) being helped and those helping the person(s). Any assistance from the County, State, or Federal Government all involves taxes and never gets run right not to mention the person(s) being helped are robbed of their potential and dignity. The one notable exception is for those who have served honorably in the Armed Services. These individuals should have at all times the finest care for the acute and chronic physical and psychological ill effects they experienced during their honorable service. Alexander Fraser Tytler quotes (showing 1-4 of 4) “A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the people discover they can vote themselves largess out of the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidate promising the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that democracy always collapses over a loose fiscal policy--to be followed by a dictatorship.” ― Alexander Fraser Tytler https://www.goodreads.com/author/quotes/5451872.Alexander_Fraser_Tytler Well, there You (You in a generic sense) have it - the dolers must immediately be kicked off the dole and find help nearest them so they, too, can enjoy the fruits of their labor for the United States of America to exist and flourish as a Democracy. Well, a Democratic Republic, really. For reason, the Social Liberal Left must be stopped in their tracks. The Social Programs instituted within the Federal Government to provide individuals (with the noted exception only) with monetary or other benefits is the specific and targeted demise of this nation. I am not exactly sure what form of dictatorship the Social Liberal Left is promoting and trying to install but I am abhorrent of the current cast of Social Liberal Left on public display. Freedom Loving American Patriots (and other Freedom Loving Peoples) really do need to get each other's sixes here due to the imminent Socialistic Liberal Left's policies and practices.

As long as You leave Your Iraqi Dinar behind (since the US war in Iraq provides for the return on the IQD investment) and you immediately go somewhere else other than Canada. In the 50 years since Lyndon Baines Johnson declared the "Unconditional War On Poverty", the US has spent 22 trillion dollars on anti-poverty programs. The 22 trillion does not include the spending on the anti-poverty programs for the last three years. I want my money back from that counterproductive War that mostly funds people to remain in their self defeating impoverished condition while creating a huge segment that demands their dole, creates Snowflakes, rocket fuels racism, and empowers the Socialist Liberal Left in their attempt to destroy this country. The "Unconditional War On Poverty" has only promoted poverty deeper and more comprehensive. So getting my money back from the "Unconditional War On Poverty" is actually warranted since the "Unconditional War On Poverty" actually weakened this country instead of making it stronger by retaining people in poverty instead of the impoverished really directing themselves to be an integrated productive contributor in society. http://www.heritage.org/poverty-and-inequality/report/the-war-poverty-after-50-years Amen!!!

We'll just riot (or foment this behavior via the main stream media) in the streets, call our honorable law enforcement agents brutalizers for stopping and arresting us, hurt innocent people, burn things not our own, and destroy property not our own because YOU are going to pay for our prolifically reckless and otherwise socially destructive deeds!!!
