Hm. We have roughly 10 times the population in Iraq.
Which means, this "aid package" that bush's sending is going to cost us about $354.49 each. Which is $54.49 more than he "gave" us last year in tax relief to remind us to vote for him...
(Actually, more, because only about 40% of tax-paying Americans got the full $300...)
