With a big project like that during wartime it would probably be fairly easy to cover up. Tons of money is being expended, you just cook the books a little bit and spread that $20bil over a bunch of other huge expenses.

That might make you ask what we're currently spending $20 billion on that nobody knows about, though.

  $275 billion, due to inflation.

    The $20 billion figure is after inflation. I've seen estimates as much as $28 billion. In actual dollars it was $2 billion.
