What conditions were improved?
How much did it cost us to create these improvements?
How much would it hasve cost us to manintain these improvements?
In my opinion if we had continued to occupy Iraq we would have spend hundreds of billions more and suffered tens of thousands more casualties. It would have been throwing money and the lives of soldiers down a bottomless pit. We can't afford to "fix" problems by taking over countries and occupying them.
