Probably our government thought that a side effect of invading Iraq was to preserve cheap oil for a while. Bush did not dare say that explicitly. The failure of our government to confront reality guarantees a seriously reduced standard of living for everyone. Iraq is not a war. Iraq is an enormous exercise in self-deception. Not as bad as Napoleon or Hitler invading Russia, but bad enough. The sequence may be: --dollar way down --oil (and gold and all other commodities) way up --food up even more --interest rates forced up as foreigners back off from treasury bonds --stock market finally collapsing by at least 50% Let us hope that the civic discontent resulting from all of this does not lead to further foreign military adventures. That's what has often happened.
