Darleen: <The dollar cost of this war could very well dramatically change the course of our system.>

But who worries about the dangers of 'guns and butter' anymore? We're operating under a new, improved economic paradigm now. (g) And just wait till the cheap oil starts flowing...(has not seemed to help much, so far):

Commercial watermen eligible for payments
Maryland to give $500 to blue crab harvesters

Maryland is giving unprecedented one-time payments to some residents who catch blue crabs for a living because the cool, damp spring has left watermen in dire financial shape.
With the water temperature in the Chesapeake Bay running well below normal this year -- causing crabs to be less active -- watermen are reporting distressing harvests, according to the Department of Natural Resources.

The payments will come from a federal $1.2 million grant the state is expected to receive later this year. Congress approved the money as part of a $5 million aid package for watermen in five states with declining blue crab harvests.

"Our watermen are hurting," said U.S. Sen. Barbara A. Mikulski, a Maryland Democrat, who was instrumental in getting the aid. "That's why I fought ... for our watermen and their families -- to help them make it through these difficult times."
