I mean think about it. The deficit is clearly due in large part to the War on Terror, and with so many people in the National Guard getting called to Iraq, there are a lot less people at work, which hurts the economy. Despite the deficit, taxes are so high right now to pay fr the war that, even with my low wage right now, I'm paying around thirty per cent, and if income taxes are progressive, then that means rich people are paying upwards of fifty to sixty per cent.
So what I'm thinking is, if we remove our troops from Iraq, could we have the same economic boom that we had in the 90s?
