No, We Cannot “Afford” This War with Iran Either
About this episode
The episode critiques the notion that the U.S. can afford a war with Iran while highlighting the hypocrisy of the GOP regarding government spending.
Leftists sarcastically asking where the money for this war will come from are right about the GOP’s hypocrisy, but wrong to imply that it actually means there's plenty to spend on all these government programs. We can’t afford any of this. Read the article here: https://mises.org/mises-wire/no-we-cannot-afford-war-iran-either Be sure to follow the Guns and Butter podcast at https://Mises.org/GB
