A few days ago, I posted about an approaching milestone. Just a few hours ago, we reached it. We have now spent one trillion dollars on our wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Where are the parades?
And do the soldiers know? After all, most of them are actually in Afghanistan, where it is the 234th day of the ninth year of the war.
You can have wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, or democracy. But you cannot have both.

Check out this article, “America’s forgotten war”. The news business have no money or interest in covering it anymore…
And I think there was a troop level intersection this week as well, 92.000 in both Afghanistan and Iraq..
