The U.S. is in a so called "recession" so going to war is the best thing for us to do. Ignorant fuck. So we have to kill a few people to stimulate our economy, that's fine with me.
I hope to god we bomb the fuck out of Iraq, it's been a long time coming.

hahahaha! I do have a degree in economy and in sociology.
It's funny how Bush governement use to say that Saddam was behind September 11 and the Anthrax attacks; no, but he's on the verge of developping nuclear weapon; no, but he's a really evil man... and if this doesn't work ... what's next? "War can boost US economy?" ROFL
This idea of saying that the war can stimulate the US economy seems like a natural progression for his dumb government.
There is no question about WW II pulled the US economy of the great depression. But today, while not in depression, could maybe use some help; but the latest evidence suggests a slow recovery that it feels like a continuing recession. War isn't the answer.
WW II is a stupid model for the economic effects of a new war with Saddam. On balance, such war is much likely to depress than to stimulate your struggling economy.
What's so maginc on spending money on military spending? it doesn't provide more economic stimulus than the same amount spent on, say, cleaning up toxic waste sites.
Why don't you educate everyone here on how a war will boost your econony? You seem to know what you are talking about...
