    It is wealth transfer.

      Well that’s what Trump said, right? We can’t have universal child care, Medicare, or Medicaid because we have to pay for war.

    I expect costs at least twice as much

    Most of this is not money spent already, but what a small group of wealthy will receive over the next decade. And there will be more costs to increase that thievery.

    The bottom 99% will see a trickle of that money only

    So. A “skirmish” cost $36 billion per month. Good thing it wasn’t a “war”!

    Yet another stimulus for the rich.

    Cost a hell of a lot more if one figures in the DC Signal chats and the insider trading around the various war announcements. That’s a tax on the poor too.
