34. what's the accounting look like?
" I will soon submit to Congress a request for 87 billion dollars. The request will cover ongoing military and intelligence operations in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere, which we expect will cost 66 billion dollars over the next year. "

If you get $87 Bn and only allocate $66 Bn you have $21 Bn unaccounted for. Is that all going to be lost to corporate profits?
That would be my bet.
