As a college student for the entire time that the war has been going on and living in this country as it enters into economic hard times, it is hard to comprehend how any one can not be concious of the issues that this war are bringing on to the "millinium" generation. As the cost of the war increases with no bounds, at home employment goes down, federal social programs are hendered and the national debt is constantly expanding. The results of this will be that the current generation will be paying for the indiscriminantspending of tose in power now. This will be the largest issue facing my generation.

As an observer it has made me into a very sinical person at a rather young age. It appears that the war and the hardships it has brought are little more than a vindetta brought by the neoconservative movement who were miffed at a government that they have had issues with since the 1980's.

Thank you.
Daniel
