The bottom line, so far: According to the Costs of War Project, we're staring at a $5.4 trillion tab for the post-9/11 wars, through September 30, 2020, the final day of the current fiscal year.
That's an average of $23.7 billion monthly for the past 228 months.
Something to keep in mind the next time the Pentagon predicts a war is going to cost $2 billion a month.
