The Latest Zogby Poll, 52% Favor Invasion of Iran and the Projected Cost with Interest to You

The Latest Zogby Poll, 52% Favor Invasion of Iran and the Projected Cost with Compounded Interest to You...

Dear Reader,

We don't mean to alarm you, but the Iran Invasion seems almost imminent. And, 52% of Americans favor the Invasion. See the Zogby Poll Results; Zogby Poll: 52% Support U.S. Military Strike Against Iran.

Further, the other night, on Countdown with Keith Olbermann on MSNBC reported that the Iraq war is costing each individual in the USA approximately $ 20,000 plus interest.

OK. Let's project on that, let's assume that you will also be paying a further $ 20,000 (plus compound interest) for the Iran invasion. Using the interest calculator, that comes to about $ 500,000 over the next 5 years at 30% interest coming out of your pocket. That's for you, alone. For the estimated population of the current USA (about 300 million) that comes to $ 150 Trillion. That's roughly 13 times our Gross National Product (give or take).

But, that's just an estimate.
