Stiglitz on the true cost of Iraq

He may sometimes be hijacked into Wonderland by the leftist cabals (such as when he supports India's NREG scheme to project Sonia'ma' as the reincarnation of Indira'ma') - but for the most part he gets it right.

This war is screwing America - the only sad thing of course is that the Hans are gaining from it. Stiglitz is not the first to warn about Oil and Debt - Kevin Phillips wrote a prescient book a couple of years ago. Phillips blames Bush too - however it is the economic model of what Gurumurthy calls Charuvaka economics that is to blame
