WOULD YOU SUPPORT AN ISIS TAX?
How Much Will It Cost To Fight ISIS?
bostonglobe.com
Twelve years ago we stumbled into a war in Iraq with little thought as to how much it would cost or how we might pay for it. Trillions of dollars later, we are about to wade into another protracted conflict, and once again there is no financial strategy.
