“Not only has the U.S. created a disaster with the unconstitutional invasion of Afghanistan, but now that they’ve been forced to retreat, they’re leaving behind some stuff…$7 BILLION worth! The Washington Post reports: ‘Military planners have determined that they will not ship back more than $7 billion worth of equipment — about 20 percent of what the U.S. military has in Afghanistan — because it is no longer needed or would be too costly to ship back home.’ What’s $7 billion when you can always just turn on the taxpayer spigot? And doesn’t Bernanke create $7 billion just in his sleep? What’s the big deal?”
