The war in Iraq was funded by money borrowed from China. That will have to be paid plus interest. This war and its cost caused the dollar to lose value, making everything America imports more expensive. The mortgage crisis was caused by greed, with brokers selling homes by providing low deposits and low interest and mortgage payments for the first year or so – to attract those they knew who cannot afford it when the offer is lifted. These were then packaged through their partner banks and sold as investments. The banks then used these “assets” to borrow funds from foreign banks, converted others into bonds. The money from these went into the war too.

If you’re looking for a connection, there is. That’s why the Republicans will never admit that the war was a mistake. It is not a mistake, it is a lie. They went there to destroy weapons of mass destruction, but knew there were none. They merely wanted to control the flow of oil for their own distribution and profit. Think Halliburton.

They will profit from oil refining and distribution and would not want this to stop, that’s one reason they keep contesting Al Gore’s presentations as alarmist – but the evidence is very clear and indisputable. Only a dummy of the greediest group of capitalists will fail to see it – and I’m afraid that’s exactly what America has. –Durano, done!
