WELL friends....THIS SHOULD OPEN SOME EYES FOR THE PEOPLE WHO SAY WE ARE SPENDING TOO MUCH OVERSEAS....LETS CLEAN UP OUR HOUSE FIRST.... Why aren't the candidates talking about this? Why isn't this is published? Add up these amounts..

What costs more per year than the Iraq War?

I hope the following 14 reasons are forwarded over and over again until they are read so many times that the reader gets sick of reading them. I have included the URL's for verification of the following facts:

1. $11 Billion to $22 billion is spent on welfare to illegal aliens each year. http://tinyurl.com/zob77

10. The illegal aliens in the United States have a crime rate that's two-and-a-half times that of white non-illegal aliens.. In particular, their children, are going to make a huge additional crime problem in the US . http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIP...12/ldt.01.html

11. During the year of 2005 there were 4 to 10 MILLION illegal aliens that crossed our Southern Border also, as many as 19,500 illegal aliens from Terrorist Countries. Millions of pounds of drugs, cocaine, meth, heroin and marijuana, crossed into the U. S from the Southern border. Homeland Security Report. http://tinyurl.com/t9sht

12. The National Policy Institute, 'estimated that the total cost of mass deportation of illegal aliens' would be between $206 and $230 billion or an average cost of between $41 and $46 billion annually over a five year period. http://www.nationalpolicyinstitute.o...eportation.pdf

13. In 2006 illegal aliens sent home $45 BILLION in remittances back to their countries of origin. http://www.rense.com/general75/niht.htm

Total cost is a whooping .... $338.3 BILLION A YEAR!!!

If this doesn't bother you then just delete the message, but on the other hand, if it does raise the hair on the back of your neck, then forward it.

SEND THIS TO ALL YOU KNOW. THE ENTIRE POPULATION OF THE UNITED STATES NEEDS TO KNOW THIS INFORMATION, UNLESS THEY DON'T MIND SHARING THEIR SOCIAL SECURITY WITH FOREIGN WORKERS who didn't pay in a dime................

Me too, lets see.....2.5 Trillion dollars, so far. Thats about 2 Billion a week, yikes. 2,500,000,000,000.00

http://www.newstatesman.com/200703120024

$1 trillion would be enough money to buy about a 1,000 boxes of Girl Scout cookies for every person in the United States. A trillion barrels of oil would — at current consumption levels — fuel the world for about 33 years.

What I'd like to know is why we were told before the invasion that the war would be paid primarily through Iraqi oil money. I can pull up the quotes if needed.

Good question Kato....

The war is costing tax payers from 4-12 billion a month, depending on which source you want to use. Keep in mind those figures are per month, not per year. So even if you use the "low" estimate of 4 Bil a month that would equate to 28 Billion a year, which surpases most all of the numbers above.

http://www.tulsaworld.com/news/artic..._A4_Month52386

The war will eventually cost about 2 Trillion dollars, or 2,000,000,000,000.00

This is a result of the big spending republicans being in charge. Creating a 'nanny state' for the illegals, the War Party and the corporations, all the while the hard working Americans get layoff notices.

Great job by this admin here. A Trifecta

Great post as you have added more to the reason for voting these bums out!!!!

[jetdoc]

Dawgg, that reminds me of a conversation I had recently with one of my daughters husband. He's a good guy he has been brainwashed with right wing republican nonsense. Typical engineer type, lol.

He was saying how he dislikes democrats because they are going to raise taxes and take his money for social programs, like health care.

IMO republicans like to borrow and spend, democrats like to tax and spend. Which is more honest and healthy? Seems to take it out of your pocket is to me instead of mortgaging our childrens future by borrowing.

That still doens't answer the question of who taxes more? I think the Dems like to tax the rich more, which is why Corporate America hates the dems.

All I know is the national debt is a horrible reflection of our country, just like personal debt is a reflection of ourselves.

Say what your want about Clinton and I have bad things to say as well, but he did like to keep our bank account pretty balanced, it was almost down to a surplus with his administration.

I love the smell of cooking books in the morning. Especially the blue ones.

[jetdoc]

Ken, I've tried and tried but I can't find a chart that shows a graph that would make you happy, lol. Turning a blind eye won't help man...if its cooked books then support it brother, as always I'm all ears, hhahaha.
