COSTS OF IRAQ WAR ON HERNANDO COUNTY TAXPAYERS:
In 2003 and 2004, Brian and nine of his antiwar colleagues appeared before the COUNTY COMMISSION and warned them about the pending costs to Hernando County of the Iraq war. They lobbied Commissioner Mary Aiken and the Commission to vote on making an opposing-the-war public statement, if for no other reason, than the war's financial burden on Hernando County and its taxpayers. A national war data institute, Nationalpriorities.com, reports that from 2003 to 2013, the cost of the Iraq War to Hernando County residents has totaled $234,849,430 million dollars. It is projected for 2014 that with the combined wars of Iraq, Afghanistan and the Middle East, Hernando County taxpayers will end up paying $151,000 million dollars alone.

The peace group also argued how the war would also deplete the local FLORIDA NATIONAL GUARD, thus, jeopardizing the safety of Hernando County citizens on potential problems of hurricanes, nuclear plant accidents, oil or chemical train spills, forrest fires, civil disorders, etc.
