Contract killings don't cost all that much money. If you shop around, you can pick one up for about $10,000 or less depending on who you want to kill. Americans like to kill, so there are a good many contract killings and no shortage of contract killers. By far the biggest pool of contract killers work for your government. Your government likes to kill even more than the citizens like it. It's a kind of political madness. Given those facts, why have we taxpayers been saddled with huge tabs for slaughtering 30,000 impoverished, illiterate Afghans? These are among the poorest, least defended victims in the world. They are ideal victims for American killers. They can't fight back. Most are completely helpless. So, how come you and I paid about $600,000.00 a piece for each one we have slaughtered; babies, kids, women, old folks, all the same price, six hundred thousand dollars each no discounts quantity purchases. I say it's a gyp. We ought to get 60 or 70 of these pathetic nomads for the price we're being charged for one. Demand more efficient killing from your government. The next time some crazed, cowardly president wants to kill off folks, demand a discount at least the women and youngsters.
