World War costs to US hit 100 billion says Rotarian

Henry Marton Robinson argues in Rotarian Magazine that by the time the last Liberty Bond is cashed and the last pension paid, World War I will have cost American citizens about 100 billion dollars. He cites 1920 Treasury figures of 27 billion, 1936 direct cash costs of 45 billion, with yearly additions anticipated through 1938 and beyond, plus rising debt and veterans benefits. He notes large shares spent on pensions and disability and points to small sums to veterans of earlier wars. He concludes that war is not profitable for governments or taxpayers.
