According to the lastest issue of Time Magazine...this is the total estimated direct cost of the U.S. war in Afghanistan from 2001 through the end of next year!   Did I mention that almost 2,000 Americans and over 1,000 coalition forces have lost their lives in the mess to fight off the Taliban!

I've already posted my own recommendations on how to handle this!   That post was back in 2010, almost 2 years ago and the tally then was $277 BILLION!
