With the stock market enduring record losses (413 points in a single day in late Feb.) and all-time record level foreclosures in the mortgage industry, former FED chairman Allen Greenspan has predicted a major global depression by late summer.
Gee, thanks, Mr. President.
This 'war' was about one thing and one thing only: OIL! Now we get ready for the fun part: When the political backlash from this thing hits after Bush leaves office watch the price of crude bottom out, making it less than worthless. Watch as countless more wars spring up, now that our President has shown that it's ok to attack another country and take their stuff and divide it up among your business partners.
I support our troops and I support freedom. But this doesn't have anything to do with freedom and we all know it. |
Lol. The oil companies are more powerful than the president. The oil companies rule this country....always have....probably always will. The president doesn't control oil prices. If oil was the reason we invaded Iraq, we would've done it a long time ago. We would've had to deal with Saddam sooner or later anyway. Now the question is how do we end this thing? I don't know the answer to that one but it needs to be thought out carefully. More carefully thought out than invading in the first place.
