    "Sell-off plan" is a pretty loaded way of describing privatization.
    How about, carpet-bagging?

      Even the Rooskies weren't that "pragmatic."

        you have to understand Ramo, to DanS, pragmatism = DanS corporatist ideology.
        To us, it is the BEAST.

          Seriously Dan, $9 billion of Iraqi oil revenues have disappeared in the hands of US reconstruction authorities. I find it absurd that you're trying to argue that the Pentagon's privatization of the Iraqi oil industry would've been the least bit responsible.

              Of course, you have brought an enlightened level of deep thought to this thread yourself.

                I think you mean, "spent" without adequate documentation instead of "disappeared."

                Anyway, I'm outta here.
                I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.

                  How about "mismanaged."

                    Dino adding a vacuous comment? I just don't believe it.

                        No, "misappropriated" implies that it was spent incorrectly. Even Soros is careful not to imply that.

                            Yes, we don't have a frickin' clue what happened to $9 billion of their money. That isn't evidence that we're irresponsible or anything like that.
