Could Iraqi Oil Help Pay Some Costs? In its estimates, CBO also analyzed the suggested possibility that proceeds from sales of Iraqi oil could be used to offset the costs of rebuilding damaged infrastructure and occupation of Iraq. CBO found this idea not to be a reasonable option because: "Iraq is already a major exporter of oil and until recently has been producing at close to its peak sustainable production capacity of 2.8 million barrels a day I am not so sure that is accurate but lets assume that it is. OK, most of THAT money is presently going into Saddams coffers in his quest for WMD. Instead, we use it for the IRAQUI PEOPLE. whats the problem with that? jdn
