That statistic only includes the ones on Iraq soil and not the ones that died in route to Iraq or in route home or while training somewhere else for the war. I would say that if we were to pack up our bags and come home today, that at least 70 soldiers would die before they all made it to U.S. soil. In summary, there is no way to prevent the statistic from reaching the sad number of 4,000. >From an economic perspective, these 4,000 soldiers over their lifetime could have generated a lot of products and revenue for the U.S. The potential children and grandchildren that they could have had also would have generated potential product and revenue. Thus, their is an intangible cost to the war that will last generations. But using the same theory, a pessimist could say that many of these people would have ended up dead anyways, or in prison, etc. Just look at how often you hear about a soldier returning to poverty and dying in a bizzare incident. The point is, that this war has taken a huge toll on the military families. They were asked to sacrifice way too much for a cause that now seems irrevelant to many Americans. America needs to move on to bigger and better projects NOW. First and foremost, we MUST find ways to stop violent senseless crime. That should be our number one top priority. One could find other worthy causes to fight for: We need to make sure that native citizens of America are not "suffering" from starvation or contagious diseases. We need to make sure our tax dollars are being used to help native citizens of America first, before they are spent on helping immigrants. We should send more robot probes into space, but at the same time, we cost-effectively. We need to use some tax dollars to fund medical research, but only were obvious progress is being made. We need to let foreign countries know that Americans feel our culture is endangered, and we want to have a slow controlled immigration path. It is not a racial issue, but a normal trait to want to protect one's culture. In summary, there are dozens of things that we could be doing with the money we are now wasting in Iraq.
