Per capita income in Burundi. $100, Malawi $170, Rwanda $250, Nepal $290, Tajikistan $390. And there are 13 other countries on the list where the per capita income is less than $390.

The US war in Iraq, $4.5 Billion a month. OFFICIAL GOVERNMENT FIGURE, so it is probably more. How much different do you think life would be for the people in the countries listed and the others if this money was used to help them?  

NOTE:This is not a comment on the war, just an observation. This is an art forum, so I leave my politics at the door.
