Stiglitz and Harvard professor Linda J. Bilmes cast a spotlight on expense items that have been hidden from the U.S. taxpayer, including not only big-ticket items like replacing military equipment (being used up at six times the peacetime rate) but also the cost of caring for thousands of wounded veterans--for the rest of their lives. Shifting to a global focus, the authors investigate the cost in lives and economic damage within Iraq and the region. Finally, with the chilling precision of an actuary, the authors measure what the U.S. taxpayer's money would have produced if instead it had been invested in the further growth of the U.S. economy.--From amazon.com. 650 0 $a Iraq War, 2003- $x Finance $z United States. 650 0 $a War $x Economic aspects $z United States. 650 0 $a War $x Economic aspects $z Iraq. 700 1 $a Bilmes, Linda. 856 42 $z Additional Information at Google Books $u http://books.google.com/books?isbn=9780393067019 941 $a 19 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20240702020907.0 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314040938.0 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718084721.0 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20230629011837.0 952 $l AQPC277 $d 20201212013921.0 952 $l MYPC943 $d 20201013084457.0 952 $l LIPB815 $d 20180725113414.0 952 $l MXPG943 $d 20180720032516.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180201013253.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20170418063444.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160824045351.0 952 $l CQPE926 $d 20150404014009.0 952 $l HWAX074 $d 20140415020435.0 952 $l EZPE755 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l HIPC765 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l OTAX626 $d 20090708133753.0 952 $l O3AX572 $d 20090806113132.0 952 $l SOAX911 $d 20100120073657.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9E713B702B1111DE9FAE8B08A8D7520A 994 $a 02 $b IOKInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
