The War in Iraq and the Price of Gas

Tim Gillin over at my blog, Stress, has pointed out this interview of economist Joseph Stiglitz (of this war will cost 2 trillion dollars fame) about the effect of the Iraq war on the price of gas. (Hint: It’s a hell of a lot more than they’ve been saying.)

Can’t wait till they get the straits of Hormuz closed due to the upcoming war against Iran.
