The Economic Cost of War
Kudos to the librarians of the St. Louis Federal Reserve for another great issue of their Liber8 newsletter. Liber8's May 2008 issue [PDF] covers the economic cost to the U.S. of Iraq War expenses. The newsletter compares two widely cited estimates of the cost: one from the Congressional Budget Office and the other from researchers Joseph Stiglitz and Linda Bilmes. As usual, the 2-page newsletter links to free online sources of related reports, data, and articles.
