$37.5 billion dollars is almost 5 years of WIC funding. we could feed the most vulnerable women and children in our country for five years for what they’ve spent on five months of useless war.
Paul ByrneThe U.S. Secretary of Defense just stated that—so far—the war with Iran has cost $37.5 billion dollars. That's since February.

There is an old Soviet joke. Three men in the gulag talk about why they are there. 1st Man: I spoke against Comrade Popov in 1931. 2nd Man: I spoke in favor of Comrade Popov in 1932. 3rd Man: I am Comrade Popov! That is the kind of government we have now. It's a joke, but not funny.
