If US companies want to invest in SE Asia there is nothing stopping them.
- grewergrfefg 9y agoI don't have an answer for you. But, I'd rather spend tax dollars building railroads in SE Asia than blowing up the Middle East. #Iraq2Trillion #neverforget
- the-dude 9y agoDude, it is not 2 trillion by a long shot. It is 268k ( https://www.iraqbodycount.org/ https://www.iraqbodycount.org/ )
- tacomonstrous 9y agoDollars not deaths.
- clio 9y agoIf we count trees as people, there is no difference
- knowaveragejoe 9y agoDid you really think he was talking about the body count?(Have 2 trillion people even ever lived...?) He's clearly talking about the projected cost of that war.

- nappy 9y agoI believe he's referring to the economic cost being $2 trillion, not the death count.
- droopyEyelids 9y agoRight now we're using the tools of taxation and legislation to transfer our country's wealth to 'elites' - mainly through taxation for 'defense' spending, patent law legislation, and finance. Those choices are not obviously the ones that will have the most beneifical long term impact on our country's power.
