As pointed out by ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dargie:
Initial amount alloted to the war in Iraq by the U.S.: $87 billion
Initial amount alloted to the Asia tsunami/earthquake disaster relief by the U.S.: $15 million
Granted, like I said, it's the initial amount and the government plans on pledging more, but put the two numbers next to one another and they're still pretty sad.
