Wars arent free.
Wars are far from free.
Iran has done attacks on oil transport and oil production in the region, as a response to US aggression.
Iran knows it cant defeat USA in a military sense, but also cannot be defeated by it in any short time.
But economically, Iran can defeat USA.
By choking US economy, attacking its main energy source: Oil, Iran is causing trillions of dollars of damage to USA.
First, the mere military costs are already 1 billion per day.
But with rise in price of oil, economical costs skyrocket into trillions.
Because USA pays 800 billion dollars a year for oil, weekly inflation of 30% means weekly cost of around 7 billion dollars based on oil alone, assuming price doesnt keep rising.
But when oil price rises, all other prices tend to follow.
While oil itself would by current inflation cost about 400 billions per year, and military costs additional 400 billion per year, when we account for inflation of all other items, and further inflation of oil, we get result that this war, if it lasts only for a year, will cost USA trillions of dollars.
So yes, enjoy paying trillions for another unnecessary war. It took you years to defeat Iraq, and decades to defeat Afghanistan and still failed. But Iran is a bigger fish than both of these together.
