There is a third reason that this war is economically bad for America. Not only has America already spent a great deal on this war – $12 billion a month, and counting – but much of the bill remains to be paid, such as compensation and health care for the 40% of veterans who are returning with disabilities, many of which are very serious.
这一战争对于美国经济不利还有第三个原因。美国不仅已经在这一战争上花费巨资每月高达一千二百亿美元，而且还在增加，但是大部分的账单还是没有支付，例如从战场返回的40%残疾老兵的补偿和医疗费用。许多士兵的伤势严重。
