Why are the sheeple (sheep-like people) following oil companies into Iraq and possibly Iran?

Pehaps I missed somethng, but I thought the daily cost of the war figures was pretty well known in 2002. This is a well written and swell reminder however, of how stupid humanity and governments can be. I understand Halliburton and all of its many subs, including Blackwater, etc, collect about 20% of this money figure. That must be some "benefit" for our shakey economy.
Hey mister, can you spare a dime?
That's what y'all get for voting Democrat instead of voting for Nader.
All that money is going to other corporations instead of to We the People Inc.
ezeflyer.. Yup. Plus, all that money has been going to the corporations since FDR's finalizing of the Federal Reserve. http://www.commondreams.org/archive/2007/09/22/4014/
Well, gosh - no WONDER we "can't afford" health care for children. You know, the bill that George is going to veto because it's "too expensive". What's too expensive is George.
Incidentally, have you heard that Karl Rove's emails did NOT all get erased as he'd hoped when he quit? Greg Palast set up a very similar website to Rove's, and quite a few of them were misdirected to Greg Palast. Check out http://brasschecktv.com for the full story.
Sweet Jesus, what the people could do with that money.

"Sweet Jesus, what the people could do with that money."
And all We the People have to do to get it is to incorporate.
Keep in mind that nobody is actually paying for this credit card war and occupation. The debt just piles up.
Have you told your children how much they owe already? Get those 5 year olds to work, if they want to even pay the interest, let alone balance of $9 trillion. Otherwise they'll owe even more when they grow up and wonder why this generation hated their children this much, and impoverished them.
It's nice to hear again from the American Empire Institute. Tell us some more about how money grows on trees and this misadministration can spend whatever it wants on Iraq, and the next crisis, and the next.
At what point does America go bankrupt?
America is still paying for WW1 and WW2. Why do the people imagine a vain thing hoping Bush would ever dream of telling the truth. I said from the begining that the war would cost a minuim 3 trillion dollars. I was mocked and laugh at! The elite have shifted the tax burden under the leadership of former Secretary of Treasury Andrew Mellon who caused the great depression when the nation realized it had no money in its treasury from the 5 tax breaks he gave the wealthy who shifted the tax burden to the non-wealthy who had no money! The non-wealthy have been paying for every american military action since FDR. Our tax structure is design on kissing the butt of the wealthy in this countrty! It would be cheaper to get rid of this nations wealthy by taking away their citizenship and start over without them by deporting them all! The wealthy have committed economic treason! They are using america has their personal slush fund in conquering Iraq for Exxon-Mobil! I wonder how many of our elected officials have been given cheap oil stocks to buy their loyality! Treason is on a massive scale by the oil companies and Washington! The truth is that JD Rockefeller found oil in the middle east to avoid paying taxes in America and to avoid Washington having any control over his companies that the anti-sherman act had broken up!Corporate law was written and created to circumvent the constitution and the Bill of Rights. Corporate law is a form of long term treason where international corporation like those who gave money to Hitler to build up Germany's economy by weakinging America economy! Bush's war in Iraq is a war against us! He deliberatly went to war without no regard for this nation. I am sure he will be well paid after he leaves office! He prayed for war before he came to office. His father if he had been re-elected would have gone back to war in IrAq. President Clinton was impeached because he did not obey the orders of the Bush adminstratin fanatical foot soldiers. Bush war to go back to Iraq was written in stone and ojn the wall before he became President! If Clinton gets elected the war will go on! She is a Yale graduate! This is Yale's war. What the press have failed to ask President Bush Jr. is-has he or as he ever been on the pay role of the CIA. Bush Jr is a covert CIA officer who is on the domestic pay role of the CIA like his father! It is a felony for a covert CIA officer to be a federaly elected official without disclosing that he is a CIA officer! It is a crime!
If we had all voted for Nader, they would have shot him or crashed his plane.
GREAT ARTICLE, Our adversarys are not on the battle field in Iraq! We created those foe's. Americas real enemies are right here at home and we elected them. Our current leadership will bankrupt America both financially and morally. What we need is a good old fashion revolution. Thats what it will take if "we the people" what to restore America values (pre-Bush) and protect the Constitution.
