"There are about 42,815 highway deaths and 2.92 million crash-related injuries per year. (per; National Highway Traffic Safety Administration)

Gee, 42,815 highway deaths, and they were expended for what?"

That's the direct quote in the context of asking about the worth of wasting 800 American lives on an unnecessary war.

If you don't think you were equating solders' deaths with highway deaths, (and later, soccer fans' deaths) then you may want to reconsider how you expressed it.
