Yeah, there's a reason Afghanistan has been called the Graveyard Of
Empires. Since 2001 the USA has spent 2 trillion dollars fighting the
Taliban, for that amount of money we could've given $54,000 to every
man, woman and child living in Afghanistan, and in retrospect that
might have actually been a better option.
John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis

The total ultimate Afghan war bill is estimated as more than $6.4
trillion, according to the Cost of War Project at Brown University. That
includes the pension and medical costs which will be incurred over the
next 80 years. So we could have given them $164,000 per person. Or we
could have given every American $18,300.
