Trillion Dollar War cont.

While doing more research i found more information on the book, The Three Trillion Dollar War. It picks up on where i left off on my last post.
So far as i said the government is hiding the true cost of the war to Americans. They are doing all that they can to make it seem less worst than it already is. However this is only hurting our economic system.
This artcle i stumbled upon simply states what the author of the book is trying to pursuade to its readers,
"As the authors detail, the Bush administration has used every trick in the book to hide the real price tag -- concealing non-combat casualty figures, keeping double sets of books, not factoring in support troops, and allowing the Pentagon to produce budgets so contradictory, obscure and incompetently presented that there is literally no way to determine how much it has spent. The authors had to use the Freedom of Information Act to obtain much of the information in their book. "

The article also continues to talk about the futures of war veterans, how will disabled veterans possibily be paid if the country will be showered with past debts.
