No, The Costs of War Project at Brown U thinks the cost will be 6 trillion over 40 years including interest. That's clearly a group without an agenda. The cost of public assistance over the same time period will be at least 80 Trillion, not including interest and maintaining current levels of spending. Sorry, you lose.

Hell, when Democrats passed Obama's stimulus bill, it was about as costly as the Iraq war up to that point. Money only means something to the left, when it's not spent directly benefitting them.
I don't need to post facts when I have the truth on my side. But here you go. Social security and Medicare alone accounts for at least 1.7 trillion a year. I may have to restate it, as we spend more on public assistance in one year than we spent on the entire war.
And who cares? This seems like a law that would have been relevant in 1993. But now the world has passed it by, and the Canadian government looks like a bunch of out of touch beaureaucrats.
Apple unlocked the phone within a week of the shooting. The game now is to make terrorists think that Apple wont cooperate, that the FBI has nothing of value from this phone, and that the feds are incapable of reading any of the latest iPhones. Every body wins, Apple gets to save their reputation, the FBI looks dumb in the eyes of Isis, and all you idiots fall for it hopefully just like ISIS did.
Let's see some marches on Washington in support of that. I just don't think that's going to happen. The left has been exposed as unprincipled authoritarians, who are only concerned with getting the proper party in power.
They have the power to force people to consume certain products, why shouldn't they also have the power to force certain people to produce certain products? To all the people that wanted more government, this is what more government looks like.
When everything is illegal, it gives authority great power to shape society. They get to pick who to punish, and whom to not. They get to direct action and free will suffers as a consequence.
If only there was someone in charge that we could blame and hold accountable for the action of the NSA and FBI. Problem is, most of the people here voted for that person, so that's not really a possibility.

That's all great, but your OP was talking about public assistance, not some obscure program from the 1990's.
I forgot the sarcasm tags. I'm totally on your side.
Then it's disingenuous to include the full cost of the war without subtracting taxpayer contributions that paid for it.
So maybe now you can admit that I had the truth on my side, and was correct in my assertion.
What is this program called "wellfare", that you speak of?
Tell me, what was the poverty rate before and after we spent 10's of trillions on public assistance programs?
So are you telling me a ponzi scheme isn't a ponzi scheme until it fails?

Shut up. If you're opposed to welfare, you hate poor people.

Bullshit, we spend more in two years of public assistance than we spent on the entire war.
I said specifically.
Specifically, what oil subsidies?
If you want to get them to step down, stop subsidizing solar corporations with their money, you authoritarian fucktard.
It's a small part of the picture. It's government immigration policy and lawlessness that is causing the relevant problems to the OP. Not capitalism.

What they have one? A dozen? Is that enough or are they going to have to PRODUCE more? Sorry, but that was a pretty moronic comment you made.

That's just a giant straw man, because in the US, no one can be turned down for medical care. So shut your lying cowardly mouth.
