Check out the actual site itself. It's pretty interesting how much REAL good you can do with $3,000,000,000,000.00

I would put birth control in the water supply. The antidote would be free and widely available, but I think it would save a ton of money and make people more responsible. *crickets* oh...and I would buy World Peace! *massive applause*

Where does he get these figures? On the website there are ridiculous things like "Buy Canada" for $250,000.

Should I be ashamed of the fact that the first thing I did was buy a new laptop?

I know, what a ripoff THAT would be.

I keeed. I keeed.

I would just buy candy for it all.

While the criticism on this needless and unprovoked war is justifiable, the implied alternatives are also flawed morally by suggesting that it is possible to do good with someone else's money. What should be done with the three trillion dollars is to give it back to the people who worked for it and from whom it was taken. Individually, not collectively under socialist redistribution of wealth schemes. So that they can each spend the money that THEY worked for in order to provide for THEIR child's education, THEIR retirement, THEIR groceries, THEIR medicine, and with the money left over engage in capitalistic activity which will lead to indirect mutual benefit or voluntary charitable activity which will lead to morally sound direct benefit. We had mindset like this in the 19th century and had something called the Industrial Revolution. If you've done your research and know the story after that, then you know how socialism and Keynesian economics got their foot in the door.

Yes, of course from the ethical point of view it's better to spend the tax money robbed from the people to bomb foreign nations instead of using it on healthcare or education!
