11. Those are just estimates
I believe that number might be 135 billion, but there is much more to factor in. Those that are injured must continue to receive disability for the rest of their lives, as well as rehab.

You can rest assured that the projected figure will be well above the 200 billion.

I'm surprised that so many of you are impressed with this post. I've been using this argument for months in my discussions, I thought everyone used it.

But thanks, I'm humbled by your approval.

One thing we should learn from Karl Rove, is to keep our responses to the general public short, simple, understandable, and emotional.
