Joshua Goldstein On The Cost Of War - Part 1

Professor Joshua Goldstein speaks out in October of 2004 about how fundamentally backwards Bush's economic policies are during a time of war.

It is a historical truism that when the country is at war, the poor fight and the wealthy pay for it. With Bush's war, the wealthy were given tax breaks and the poor soldiers were shortchanged in the process by the war profiteers like Halliburton and their subsidiaries like KBR. America is now running historical deficits, with nothing much to show for it.

Keep this in mind when you complain about the Democrats raising taxes, especially for the wealthy among us.

I read his book International Relations, 8th Edition. Its a shame that there aren't more views on this video. This is a very informative presentation.
