So aside from whether or not there is even a war in Iraq or whether it's an occupation, aside from partisanship, I have a very simple question for the blogging community: If someone said we could gain peace in Iraq and have democracy and flowers and ponies for everyone, what would you be willing to spend to get it if we couldn't just put it on the credit card and had to pay right now? How high would you be willing to raise taxes in order to make Iraq into a "Little America" in the Middle East? For the sake of discussion, during WWII, the highest tax bracket was 94% for all money (no difference between income and cap gains) over 300,000/year.  Futher, FDR thought that was too low and proposed a 100% tax rate at that level. How much money does a person need for themselves when their country is at war?  If "winning" is important to America's very survival, why aren't we acting like it?
