The War on Terror Has Cost Us Nothing

Once again, to quelch the idiot baby boomer hippies-turned career politicians who all of the sudden became fiscal conservatives overnight and contstantly bitch and whine about the costs of this war please note;

2,400 people died in Pearl Harbor.

3,000 died on 9-11

Look at the corresponding response in government fiscal policy and defense spending

You'll have to explain the chart to the laypeople out there (like me). What do you mean by receipts and outlays?

Oh, sorry, just noticed, it doesn't say as a percent of GDP. My bad.

As usual, a picture is worth a thousand words. There are a lot of things about this War on Terror that I haven't liked, but this chart... well, I like that.
