LIBERTY: The bill for Iraq is understated AND hidden!

Inflation and War Finance
by Ron Paul

***Begin Quote***

If every American taxpayer had to submit an extra five or ten thousand dollars to the IRS this April to pay for the war, I’m quite certain it would end very quickly. The problem is that government finances war by borrowing and printing money, rather than presenting a bill directly in the form of higher taxes. When the costs are obscured, the question of whether any war is worth it becomes distorted.

Eventually the chickens will come home to roost.

It will be a sad day when the bill comes. It will come in several forms — rampant inflation, economic depression, disgruntled vets, the wounded, world outrage, and the hidden costs.

We can see and predict the “visible costs”, but what about Bassat’s hidden ones. What were the dead supposed to do? What about the generations they would have spawned? What about the heartache of all those left behind?

Man that is one ugly chicken coming home to poop!
