Financiamiento total para la guerra mientras que hay pobreza en el país
Domingo 25 de mayo de 2008
La única superpotencia “del mundo” es así que lo rompió no puede incluso financiar sus propias guerras. Cada dólar adicional que el régimen irresponsable de Bush tiene que solicitar de extranjeros aplica una presión más hacia abajo en el valor del dólar. Durante los ocho perdidos y los años extravagantes del régimen de Bush, una vez que el dólar de los E.E.U.U. poderoso haya perdido el cerca de 60% de su valor contra el euro. El dólar ha perdido aún más de su valor contra el oro y el aceite. Antes de que Bush comenzara sus guerras de la agresión, el aceite era $25 por barril. Es hoy $130 por barril. Algo de esta subida puede resultar de la especulación del fugitivo en el mercado a plazo. Sin embargo, la causa principal es el valor que erosiona del dólar. El aceite es verdadero, y desemejante de los dólares de papel se limita en fuente. Con comercio de los E.E.U.U. y déficites presupuestarios masivos, el flujo de montajes de las obligaciones del dólar, así conduciendo abajo del valor del dólar. Cada vez que se levanta el precio en los Dólares del aceite, el déficit comercial de los E.E.U.U. se levanta, requiriendo un financiamiento más extranjero del uso de la energía de los E.E.U.U. Bush ha manejado conducir la cuenta de la importación del aceite de los E.E.U.U. para arriba a partir de $106 mil millones de 2006 a aproximadamente $500 mil millones 18 meses tarde-cada dólar de el cual tiene que ser financiado por los extranjeros. Sin el dinero extranjero, los E.E.U.U. “superpotencia” no pueden financiar sus importaciones o la operación de su gobierno. Cuando se levanta el precio del petróleo, los americanos, que son cada vez más pobres, no pueden pagar sus cuentas de la calefacción del invierno. Así, la cuenta militar del gasto del senado contiene más subsidios de la calefacción para la legión creciente de América de gente pobre. El precio de levantamiento de la energía conduce encima del precio de producir y de transportar todas las mercancías, pero las rentas americanas no se están levantando a excepción del extremadamente rico. The disappearing value of the US dollar, which pushes up oil prices and raises the trade deficit, then pushes up heating subsidies and raises the budget deficit. If oil was the reason Bush invaded Iraq, the plan obviously backfired. Oil not merely doubled or tripled in price but quintupled. America’s political leaders either have no awareness that Bush’s wars are destroying our country’s economic position and permanently lowering the living standards of Americans or they do not care. McCain says he can win the war in Iraq in five more years and in the meantime “challenge” Russia and China. Hillary says she will “obliterate” Iran. Obama can’t make up his mind if he is for war or against it. The Bush Regime’s inability to pay the bills it is piling up for Americans means that future US governments will cut promised benefits and further impoverish the people. Over a year ago The Nation reported that the Bush Regime is shedding veteran costs by attributing consequences of serious war wounds to “personality disorders” in order to deny soldiers promised benefits. Previous presidents reduced promised Social Security benefits by taxing the benefits (a tax on a tax) and by rigging the cost of living adjustment to understate inflation. Future presidents will have to seize private pensions in order to make minimal Social Security payments. Currently the desperate Bush Regime is trying to cut Medicaid health care for the poor and disabled. The Republican Party is willing to fund war, but sees everything else as an extravagance. The neoconized war party is destroying the economic prospects of American citizens. Is “war abroad and poverty at home” the Republican campaign slogan for the November election?
