So with the recent issue of the bridge falling in MN…US Dollars could have been spent on infrastructure or on “anti-terror.”  When you look at it from a “lives saved” perspective…how do you determine which would really have saved more?

Consider, in this war, we’ve lost over 4000 soldiers (pdf file link), spent billions, and possibly prevented a terrorist attack.  Or we could have invested that money in infrastructure, and possibly problems like the NYC pipes and the MN bridge collapse would never have happened.

Do you think US dollars are being spent wisely?

Yes, I’m still alive…and yeah, this isn’t really a personal financial post…but I don’t really feel like writing about finances in recent days…I have been reading comments and trust me, the last few has made me think quite a bit.
