The MBA administration

Somehow I missed this before Xmas but it seems that, in the interests of running the country like a business, US Secretary of State thinks of the dead, wounded and otherwise damaged American servicemen and women in Iraq as an investment. I wonder what rate of return she is expecting? Perhaps she will issue a prospectus.

As of Xmas day the death count in Iraq has surpassed the number of those who died on 9/11.

It sounds as if we are getting a negative rate of return to me?
