Hello Mpls Folks, I felt prior to the war it was important for the city of Minneapolis to take a stand on the war, and still believe it would be appropriate. Our national debt distributed among each household in America equals about $85,000 per-household. The bulk of that debt has been created by this war, and that hurts each resident of this city, and it ultimately results in fewer dollars for the city. The city council should weigh in and vote for the U.S. to have a plan to get out of Iraq sooner rather then later. We can't afford another 4 to 10-years fighting this war. Our national leaders argued this war would be paid for with oil revenue from Iraq and that has not been the case. It has been paid for with our tax dollars that could be better used fighting the war on poverty. Ken Bradley
