Andrew Cohen jests (kind of):
I think the government should should charge everyone who wants to see the photo a set price — say, $100 – and then use the proceeds to help fund the ongoing war in Afghanistan or the war in Iraq or wherever else American troops are in harm's way fighting the war on terror. Or maybe fund scholarships for the child survivors and victims of the September 11, 2001 terror attacks on America. Or maybe do better by our brave military families struggling to get by. Better yet, each person could select from one of those options when forking over their Benjamin. No checks, please, and a service charge for all credit card orders. And if you want to contribute to paying off the national debt, that is cool, too.
