No... not the average working American ..But the CEO's and big business love war, and for the poor and the rest of the world BAD...
Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies in the final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.

It is very bad for the economy especially in the long run, the country is going into debt, the dollar is losing value which will make imports more expensive. Taxes will go up and with all the debt a majority of the American citizens have will not be able to support it causing a collapse.

Yes..somehow but from all prespectives....! you might be getting enough Oil, but on the same time you are spending alot there..but it is doing good to your economy in the sense that Iraq can not sell oil to the world directly and Iran is banned as well.....so overall the oil price is high in the world..as Iraq and iran are second and third highest sources of Oil in the world...and when these countries can't sell their oil out, the overall price is high and America can sell their oil in with great profit ! so obviosuly it is helping your economy and this is actualy the base of this attack !

It's my understanding that now, today, it has minimal impact on our economy. In our future, as we have to pay back our debt, it may slow our economy, possible cause a recession.

War is never good but sometimes necessary. As to how good it is for our economy. All i can say that companies better not be profiteering off the backs of our soldiers.
Although there has been mentioned i want to see proof and them brought to court to answer for it.

Yes.
It has prevented our nation from being cut off from mideast oil supplies, which was Saddam's intent in starting that war. When Saddam sent his tanks into Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, he made it clear that he wanted to choke off our nation's lifeblood.
By defeating Saddam and allowing election of more rational leaders in Iraq, we have saved the very existence of our nation and economy.

No. It's put us trillions of dollars into debt, has ruined our foreign trade by reducing the international worth of the dollar, and has alienated us from many other countries in terms of trade.

That's not the idea, it's the industrial military complex(just as with the nazis) that are profiting BIG.
