Does the cost of the Iraq occupation causes a fragile economy?

Thursday, July 1st, 2010
iraq
James Star asked:


Barack Obama has linked the effects of the cost of the occupation of Iraq to fragility in the economy. Do you agree with him?

Other sources estimate that the cost of the attack and occupation of Iraq will run to $3 trillion. This does not include other defense spending.

How is the extra money being spent in Iraq affecting the US economy?

Saturday, May 15th, 2010
iraq
Old Man from Scene 24 asked:


I often hear economists saying some financial trend or another is being caused by the housing crunch or a hurricane or China building for the Olympics. But the massive amounts of money being directed to Iraq must be coming from somewhere and taking money from something else. Wouldn’t that much money leaving the US be a bigger hit on the economy than a storm in Texas?
What is being affected economically by the Iraq war?

what are the chances of Iraq having a good economy in 10 years?

Wednesday, March 24th, 2010
iraq dinar
Roger L asked:


Lets face it, Iraq is rich in natural resources and have the potential to bounce back due to the oil prices.

Lets say one bought 10 million dinars at a negligable cost today, and it were to recover to the value of the US dollar in 10 years time.

Is this possible?

geo asked:


im looking to get in to currency trading and the strategy i will be focusing on when i do is investing in developing nations. so on my Army funded all expense paid vacation to the lovely sands of Iraq in two weeks i was going to start my collection of dinars, maybe a couple million. the main reason i have faith in Iraq is because of all the oil fields that will be back in operation one day, but i figured i would ask around to see if there is another country that looks like would have a better chance to succeed

There were nine banks involved in the trade of Iraqi Dinar two days ago?

Saturday, December 5th, 2009
iraqi dinar
For sure asked:


Now there are twelve today? And it’s value against the dollar has improved 3.8% in only two months? Does this mean our intelligence and presence is doing a good job, or bad, in Iraq? What’s holding back that economy from fluorishing as quickly as it could, anyways?
banks in iraq that is?
Answerer number one, I thought only the NEW Iraqi Dinar was being used in Iraq? But I guess the rest of your answer explains some things then, very enlightening, thanks?
Auction price selling dinar / US $ 1422 —–
Auction price buying dinar / US $ 1420 —

Happy Monday morning in Iraq. Now that’s a tight bid/ask?
