Worried that the US may not find any war(s) big enough to do the trick again?
Well turn that frown upside down because I have good news and great news!
First, the good news. There are still several active wars and armed conflicts across the globe. UGGs
Sheepskin Cuff Boots torn regions need rebuilding. Rebuilding creates jobs. Jobs need funding. Funding
requires spending. Which brings us to…
The great news! Secretary Gates is asking for an additional $83 billion to fund these stimulating wars
through 2009. This is on top of the $612 billion defense spending for 2009.
Heroic. Stimulative!
Economist Paul Krugman was disappointed that the ARRA was a mindlessly frugal $787 billion, so with any
luck, more wealth creating police actions will take place in the coming months.
And by hook or crook, we’ll ultimately be able to surpass that lofty WW II mark sooner rather than
later.
