How the fuck does the retarded monkey in the white house pay for the Iraq War?
Considering the war is costing 2 billion a month, how come inflation hasn't even begun to fully take hold of the US economy?

It's called 'debt' . Your parents do it all the time by borrowing on credit.
The government essentially does the same thing. If you would like to see how much the United States is in debt, follow this link:

I didn't know that the US's national debt had hit 9 trillon dollars.
Damn, Bush must really like this, he's emptying the public coffers and placing them into his fatass pockets, and nobody's doing anything about it.

Don't say stuff you don't know are true. If he was pocketing money he would have been impeached. It's not Bush's fault. You are an ignorant fool. American has been in debt for YEARS. Clinton payed off the last bit of the Civil War debt in his term.

Ok, so Bush is Cheney's puppet, yeah, I'll admit that, but he still is a neo-mean lady.

Inflation will end in the U.S. once the soldiers in Iraq are back here.

Perhaps a basic economics course will prove to you otherwise.

ignorant, maybe, but he is right... Just because money is being spent on the war, doesn't mean when the war is over, money will start growing on trees.
The economy is based on the market and how the people react to products in the market. How is some conflict in the middle east going to effect the demand of people who want an iPhone in the US?
|
Actually, the weapons industry is huge. Of course, our government buys from American military goods corporations. So a lot of what our government is spending overseas is coming back into our nation.
Inflation isn't about the demand and supply of a market. Inflation is how saturated the economy is. The more people spend, the better, but not when the government keeps forcing money into the economy.
whoa.

Kinda-sorta.
Now I shall explain something you probably already know:
-Due to the War, oil imports ceased
-supply went down
-price went up
-since people need gas, personal income money went down
-less money = less demand
-less demand = more left over (more supply)
-Company of product needs to balance the price at an equilibrium, thus using the quantity demanded compared to the quantity supplied to calculate the highest price people would willingly buy at.
-People buy product & pay tax
-tax goes to government to fund war effort.
Like I said, cheesesoda, you probably already knew that, but I was explaining it to the other people I originally had a response to.
