The middle east is one of the few places in the world that isn't accepting democracy and free markets. If we could turn that trend around by implementing a stable and democratic, free enterprize democracy right in the heart of the middle east, isn't that worth more than 1.4%? It has cost us .001% of our populatoin so far. We lose ten times that number every day naturally.

Couldn't we have just bought Iraq? Real estate can't be very expensive there.
