The financial cost is so high that the numbers barely make sense unless expressed as a per capita value (which comes to roughly $1650 USD.
As for the cost to Iraqis... Heck, if one wants to calculate that same figure in their case that's almost $24000 USD each.
Instead the US is in a war which it cannot afford and, regardless of strict military successes (cf., Vietnam), cannot win.
Little wonder Bush is largely considered to be
the worst President ever
