You mean BP, XOM, CVX, Locheed Martin, HAL/KBR, etc. are not rich??????? They are all benefiting directly from Chimp's war. All the surplus went to spending on it and guess whos pockets that money lands into? The Military Contractors, the Arms Manufacturers and ultimately the International Oil Giants.

Lockheed Martin Stock Performance Since Chimp's War Started


War is good for the economy, huh? Gets those kids off the streets that might've otherwise broken into your home and stole your silverware. And for sure it gets a select group of stocks in the S&P 500 rolling - not to mention dividend growth. It's all about dividends and capital gains.

Halliburton (Cheney's company) benefitted the most from Chimp's war (Now HOW on earth could THAT ever happen??????). HAL's stock performance was flat to negative over the 20 years. Earnings were shrinking and the viability of the company was coming into question. Funny how HAL started ramping up IMMEDIATELY after Chimp's war started and has a STUNNING 300% appreciation over the last 5 years. HAL is a crappy company. I know having worked in that industry. It needed some HELP and sure enough Cheney came to the rescue. I trust you're holdings of HAL have given you some good appreciation in your PF. No wonder you're cheering on the war. Blood for money.
