Since Bush has been in power he has spent more than $1 trillion dollars on the military.($806 billion has gone to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq)
Add to this,Bush having recently signed the $700 billion Financial Bailout Bill.
Add to this the Federal Budget for each year Bush has been in power;2002-$2.0 trillion.2003-$2.2 trillion.2004-$2.3 trillion.2005-$2.4
trillion.2006-$2.7 trillion.2007-2.77 trillion.2008-$2.90 trillion.
This gives you a total of $18.970.000.000.000.
In seven years.
(excluded from total money spent on military research and NASA)
So what doesn't add up?
Such a large amount of money spent in such a short period of time,and yet,no rise in taxes.
Is it only me who finds that strange?
