“The average American has not been asked to sacrifice for the Iraq war…” 

At least once a week for the past few years I've heard some version of the 
above quote and it implies that the average person has not been inconvenienced 
in any way by the war. Both the left and the right go to great lengths to 
perpetuate this illusion of no sacrifice while using the statement to fulfill 
whatever partisan goal they are currently chasing. Such vacuous statements 
leave me breathless mainly because they are so explosively ignorant that they 
suck all of the oxygen out of the air. 

Every single person in America that uses money has sacrificed for this war. 
Anybody with savings, income, investments or who has bought anything over the 
past three years has sacrificed a significant portion of that money because of 
inflation brought on by excessive government spending on the Iraq War.
