Big Price Tag

CNN says 9/11 security changes come with big price tag:

A bill to enact the 9/11 Commission recommendations — one of the first bills passed by the new Democratic-led House of Representatives — will cost $21 billion over five years if enacted into law, congressional budget officials said Friday.

See, there’s big, and then there’s BIG:

The Bush administration will ask for another $100 billion for military and diplomatic operations in Iraq and Afghanistan this year and seek $145 billion for 2008, a senior administration official said Friday.

Good thing the kids and grandkids are picking up the tab for all this.
