Today marks the 10 year anniversary of President George W Bush launching the invasion and occupation of Iraq. 10 years later we have 4400+ US casualties, 30k+ US wounded, 100k+ Iraqi civilian deaths, an estimated $2.2T final price tag, $16T national debt, crumbling national infrastructure and a sluggish economy that is still trying to recover from the housing market bubble and the stock market crash which also happened under the great leadership of George W Bush. As Iraq teeters daily on the verge of collapse with no sign of those illusive wmd's and we struggle to rebuild our economy the question is was it worth it?
