U.S's Economy keeps on falling and if more companies like WorldCom and Enron go down U.S.'s Economy will be deep down the hole. Then the only solution to bring the economy back up to a normal state would be to start a war against any country that is listed as his enemy. If the U.S. do take this action then he might be starting a new war! Which country do you think will the U.S. declare war on? and why? I personally think it is Iraq.
Ug, how many times does this topic have to come up before people start thinking? Listen carefully - World War implies that it involves some kind of confrontation between two sides with massive support on both sides. The top 6 armies in the world versus like number 10 is NOT a World War!!! This is not a difficult concept!!!
Well there is massive support on both sides, The iraqis want the Americans dead, while the Americans want Saddam and Iraq destroyed.
I think you're right about the country we declare war on being Iraq but how do you think that might help the situation with our economy? Isn't war expensive and can the US financially afford a war that may be equivilent to the Vietnamese War? A war of that magnitude could cost our country trillions and could also cost us our "superpower" status.
War with iraq is a foregone conclusion. The collapse of the world economy that followed something like this: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/2195341.stm Would probably set off a scramble for the remaing usuable oil reserves, and more limited nuclear strikes. The death toll would be tremendous and the survivors might envy the dead. Maybe not a world war, but why quibble when the results are the same? As far as the next target after iraq, the propaganda campaign to manufacture consent for a war on iran has already started. The headline of the article says that Iran has nuclear weapons, the body of the article contains no such information: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,60422,00.html
I used to joke. We used to joke -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 30 years ago the most watched show was the lottery. The lucky winners were birthdays chosen last. If your number was under 100 you got to serve in Viet Nam. Mine was 32. Blast Filling out the job application 20 years ago I thought what else do they want to know, my blood type? If I mentioned it, I sometimes got a chuckle. Today they want my blood and urine. 10 years ago I was told of babies thrown from incubators. The girl who told the story in Congress later admitted she lied. I was told to believe the Gulf war wasn't about the oil. When all the oil wells were set on fire we were fit to be tide. Our leaders are told the life blood of our country is oil. We used to laugh that water could be as powerful as gas. Families that made their money with blood are spoiled. Buses in Philly use fuel cells of water, and they go pretty damn fast. Today an unread bill was passed to bypass the Constitution. Like a Prince the court approved President wants Gulf War II. This time we get Iodine, vaccines and a last minute warning on CNN. The nuclear war that was laughable, my kids may now breathe in.

The notion that war is economically healthy is one of the oldest and one of the most dangerous economic myths. It's also one of the most widely accepted, which is mind-boggling to think about given the sort of dreary, totalitarian 'living standards' that typically persist in time of war. One of the means to perpetuate this myth is the concept of 'gross national product,' which magically counts increased government spending as increased production. How neat it is that money removed from a productive economy and spent on waste somehow causes 'increased productivity.' It's the same as thinking that the pick-pocket who steals your wallet has made you richer. What might make it seem as though people were better off at the immediate conclusion are the mythical factors I will mentioned here: shipping millions of men overseas so that they didn't have to be counted as unemployed, and counting increased government spending as increased production. The claim that war improves living standards is based on a GNP-per-capita measure - but here's an interesting way to think of that measure (and to see why its absurd): if half the people in America were murdered in their sleep tonight, "GNP-per-capita" would DOUBLE overnight. Just like that.
