In one province of Afghanistan a new 64,000 square foot military base sits empty. It has tiered fancy chairs, spacious offices, powerful air conditioning and a theatre. It cost $34 million to build. In  a different province $45 million has been spent to build another military facility. Also never to be used. In yet another province another facility also to be unused has been built at the cost of $80 million. And this is only the tip of the ice berg when the total costs of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are looked at.  The military industrial complex and the US war machine have their snouts in the trough or to be more accurate are robbing the US tax payers.Continued
We think too small.  Like the frog at the bottom of the well.  He thinks the sky is only as big as the top of the well.  If he surfaced, he would have an entirely different view.
