text: Between 1964 and 1972, the U.S. Government spent $24 Billion every year.That was $2 Billion every month we were in Vietnam.By the time we pulled out of Vietnam, we spent $192 Billion for eight years of war.The Vietnam war was pretty much paid for by taking money out of other government programs and putting it toward Vietnam.By the way, I read a while back on the internet that the war in Iraq right now will cost more than Vietnam did.Scary Huh?
