This was taken from www.nationalpriorites.org. The one I find particularly interesting is Renewable Electricity. Utah has roughly 700,000 households so we could have purchased enough renewable energy to power every home for six years.

Taxpayers in Utah will pay $3.5 billion for total Iraq war spending approved to date. For the same amount of money, the following could have been provided:

1,202,702 People with Health Care for One Year OR

4,305,484 Homes with Renewable Electricity for One Year OR

85,849 Public Safety Officers for One year OR

68,197 Music and Arts Teachers for One Year OR

758,257 Scholarships for University Students for One Year OR

1,490,934 Children with Health Care for One Year OR

519,992 Head Start Places for Children for One Year OR

67,397 Elementary School Teachers for One Year OR
