What Would the Cost of Another Texan War President Be?

Presidents from Texas have always found a way to ensnare the U.S.A. into protracted foreign wars with indecisive resolution. The past three Texan Presidents have run up something like ten trillion dollars in war and its aftermath costs (adjusted for inflation). It isn't likely the nation could afford another round of muddled wars that primarily benefit defense contractors with a U.S. deficit already moving toward 20 trillion dollars.

Neither may the nation have the luxury of ignoring what people think or of caring too much about their foreign opinion regarding U.S. economic priorities for ecospheric business transition to full employment and rectifictatiion of environmental health.
