Well, since he's off by $2-1/2 trillion on the national debt I guess that doesn't bode well for his comment dismissing inflation. We'll have another one of the Reagan/Bush recessions followed by stagflation after 2004, where everyone has to jump thru hoops just to stay in business.

Lindsey dismissed the economic consequences of such spending, saying it would not have an appreciable effect on interest rates or add much to the federal debt, which is already about $3.6 trillion, the Journal reported.

"Iraq War Cost May Reach $200 Billion"

Chump change for the richest country on earth. How much do you suppose a stadium full of people is worth if Saddam gets chemical or biological agents into terrorist hands? How about an entire American city or two if he gets nukes?

Stop some of the government handouts and we should have plenty of money to protect ourselves, which is job one of the government btw.
