Thanks for the post Woody. Hope Frank's right on this one.

No link, no proof..........ok that makes me believe this is true. Hell, I would have thrown out a higher number like $3.86. It seems to be one of the most popular to throw around.

Well given that they just decided to postpone parliament meetings for two weeks so the list can keep working on resolving the presidencies it does not appear that's this time table is very likely- IMO.

[mariejose]

well this is what i find unusual: the rate, Frank has been consistent in saying it's gonna be $3.00 +. so what's up with the $1.50?

maybe some truth to this? after all even Sonny said he sees the rate coming in close to $2.00.

The post says rumor is from ktf, that does not necessarily mean it is from Frank, I would guess it is not

You are right. This was NOT posted by Frank. Just a member of the forum.

[gregg450]

Yeah, don't bash Frank on that one. This is just a couple of sentences not a book!

[Bobbydee]

Thanks Woody let's hope it's true.

God Bless Semper Fi

[inheritance]

Ok, let’s stop saying that Frank said this! No place does it say Frank said this rumor. It says it came from KTF not necessarily out of Frank’s mouth……

[brookie]

That would be" SWEET" huh? Now lets see what happens.

Thanks For the Post Woody

Disappointment doesn't exist if you just look forward and realize that "one day, it will happen!!" I believe everything everyone says, as I am gullable, but have learned from my 2 years in this ride. I WILL WAIT, BUT NOT ANTICIPATE!! Thanks to everyone out there gathering intel, reliable or not. You're doing your part to contribute!!

ok look this is what the IMF said about Iraq:

Working Paper No. 10/159: Inflation and Conflict in Iraq: The Economics of Shortages Revisited

Author/Editor: Grigorian, David A.; Kock, Udo

Summary: Containing inflation has turned out to be one of the most challenging aspects of economic management in Iraq. This paper posits that conventional as well as unconventional factors explain inflation dynamics in the recent past. We build a theoretical model based on the insights into the workings of socialist economies under supply shortages provided by Shleifer and Vishny (1992) to help explain price dynamics. In the model, strategic behavior of the fuel distribution monopolist results in fuel shortages, with implications for fuel and non-fuel inflation. A number of step-wise adjustments of administered prices for fuel products since December 2005 offer an interesting experiment to help study this behavior. Our findings show that inflation may have been influenced by shortages in fuel and non-fuel commodity supplies, which themselves are driven by violence and rent-seeking.
