Two American goals that took a decade, and more than $100 billion to achieve: 1) Walk on the Moon
2) Find Bin Laden

1. It made more billionaires than ever. That's the most important goal, because
making rich people richer is the most important thing in the world.

dumped Bin Laden's moldering corpse into the ocean where
