Net Deficit due to our "War on Terrorism"?

............. "The CBO came up with a new estimate for the expenses for a Bush War on Iraq -- $60 to $200 billion up front. The CBO now estimates it will take $9 billion a month in Iraq indefinitely. That is an indefinite expenditure. You add that onto the $2 billion a month we are already spending in Afghanistan and elsewhere in the world fighting the "War on Terrorism." Then you add $1 billion a month being spent on "domestic" war on terrorism and you see that 40% of the net deficit is coming from the "War on Terrorism."............

A tad expensive..no?
If we keep starting and continuing wars in the name of American imperialism (sorry..."national security"), just WHAT will be left here at home for us to prosper with?
