Default Food for thought..Iraq and economy

So we pull back the troops, units stand down and we reduce expenditures. Then, we'll have tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands military, ancillary businesses and others that made income through the Iraq conflict all being affected.


Those folks will find jobs...................where? Just something to think about.

And NO, I am not saying that wars should be waged, or military used as policemen as it's good for jobs.

Just an idea, they come back to the United States and go to work making something. You know, assembling a product of some sort. Tv's Radio's CPU's cars, furniture, beer, whatever. I realize we don't actually do much of that anymore, but it sure would be nice to start again.

Then what are you saying?

Pretty pointless post unless you are making that point...
