rockfl9 Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 The total purchasing power in USD is provided by the 75-80 Billion dollars in oil revenues per year . Iraq cannot create dollars . The money that churns thru Iraq internally can have any value they choose but when it comes to buying thing from the international market ALL of Iraq only has that $75Bn to spend . Then consider that the MOF gets the first cut taking probably $20 Bn off the top to pay the GOIs bills that leaves only $55 Bn to be spread across the country for dollar purchases. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
