Exactly, lupo! $1 trillion dollars! An unbelievable amount of money. Besides helping the poor, re-building after Katrina, etc etc, we could probably pay for the R&D for the next generation of electric / solar / hydrogen / whatever / cars. Instead, we've got one bad guy in jail, Osama Bin Laden is still out there, and we've started a civil war.

Gee, excuse me for being thick, but it isn't what I would have spent the money on.
