> Did you know Iraq showed a 50 billion surplus this year?

The question is: who is getting rich from it? Is it benefitting the average Iraqi citizen, or some elitist segment of the population, or foreign oil companies and defense contractors? Governments always say "The economy is going great" when the rich are getting richer. I never saw a government say that the economy is doing great when wealth is redistributed from the rich to the poor.

Übergeek 바둑이: My intended point was, if Iraq is in a surplus situation, the USA should not be spending their money anymore, let them foot the bill, they're not intending to give the US any advantage in oil contracts anyway sc'em
