The Fed cuts a quarter point. What?!? You don't find that exciting?

This is the 4th time the Fed is cutting the rate in as many months this year, simply incredible. Is this the way to combat the declining economy in the US? I doubt. There must be other more functional approach.

Take for instance the Iraq War. It is estimated that almost 1 trillion dollars have already been burnt, and someone suggests that it could well escalate to the colossal 3 billions a few years down the road. Imagine if this gargantuan sum were to be donated and used to alleviate the poverty of the 1 billion impoverished worldwide, offering them better education, food, healthcare, shelter and a chance for entrepreneurship. The chain reactions of such economic processes and transactions thus generated would certainly help to build a sounder global economy for all.

It is time to quit Iraq to save lives and money. Perhaps it is the crucial way to arrest the downslide of the greenback and halt the onslaught of the nasty recession. Better now than later ...
