Booger, I don't care if it is 10 cents or $178 a week. Lets pull the tax directly out of everybodies pay check, let them see what it costs and "feel the pain" every week. In fact, that would stop the argument about "how much" is was costing. It would be right there in your paycheck, er I guess "missing from your paycheck" is the correct term.

Booger, do you have a problem with that, regardless of what the cost is. The point is, you pay it direct dependent on (what a pun coming), how many dependents you claim.

Everyone knows EXACTLY, or close to it, how much the war is costing any week/month etc that is goes on, and no leaving it for our children to pay, we pay it NOW. And in the end, we have no "debt" to pay for it, like we did with the stagflation of 1973/75, caused by the cost of viet nam. our currency almost imploded and that would have cost a world wide depression then. We were very very lucky it did not happen then. We could be in big trouble in 2008,9 or 2010 as these bills come due. We just cannot afford it.

and we tax everyone the same, social security recipients, welfare, unemployment, bonus for million dollar executives. No one gets exemptions, no one gets free.

What do you think will happen when we have to pay for it DIRECTLY and every PAYDAY. Wars will not look so good.
