Résumé ou extrait

• Présentation de l'éditeur : "Why have the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq lasted longer than any others in American history ? One view is that the move to an all-volunteer force and drones have allowed the wars to continue almost unnoticed for years. Taxing Wars suggests how Americans bear the burden in treasure has also changed, with recent wars financed by debt rather than taxes. This shift has eroded accountability and contributed to the phenomenon of perpetual war."
