FY2009 Obama administration has proposed around $130 billion in additional funding for the Iraq War and Afghanistan.
FY2010 Obama administration proposes around $159.3 billion for the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.
According to a Congressional Budget Office (CBO) report published in October 2007, the U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan could cost taxpayers a total of $2.4 trillion by 2017 when counting the huge interest costs because combat is being financed with borrowed money. The CBO estimated that of the $2.4 trillion long-term price tag for the war, about $1.9 trillion of that would be spent on Iraq, or $6,300 per U.S. citizen.
The most recent CBO report, which was conducted after the end of combat operations and hence did not have to estimate future costs, was released in December 2014. It placed the cost of the war operations in Iraq as of January 1, 2014, at $815 billion out of the total $1.6 trillion approved by Congress since September 2001.

the protection racket is going strong in the USA...this is highly amusing because the last people to invade the americas came in wooden ships  
those figures do not include the massive economic damage done to the countries they invaded and the damage refugees would cause the "allies" of the USA...
