Considering private companies are making a fortune out of Iraq, I think it's pretty disgusting to ask US citizens to pay *again*, on top of their tax $. I bet this has traditional conservatives exploding with rage. I'm sure in neo-con dreamland though, I should be contributing, or it will be me, anti-war commie that I am, who contributes to the collapse of Iraq.
I read about an Iraqi engineer who was asked to cost replacing a bridge in his town he reckoned it would be about $300,000. The next thing he knew an American company did the work and got paid about $30 million. The US taxpayer is unknowingly filling the pockets of Bush and his friends. nice work if you can get it
