Article quote: "Iraq stands now on the brink of a deadly pit is the possibility of a storm economic disaster..."

Iraq is not on the verge of bankruptcy. They have issues, but they also have options available to them. The reserves are among the highest in the world in relation to the money supply. The GOI is in control of salaries, and can adjust them downward as necessary.

Oil production continues to grow. There are a lot of companies that are seriously looking into investing in Iraq in the short term (I did a google search and found plenty of them). Admittedly, there is no "quick fix." The situation is difficult, but hardly out of control.
....
Iraq is not going to "collapse"...It will weather the storm. Remember, growth last year was at about 9%. Just give these people some time and they will get the situation under control. No panic is called for.

I will add one more point: the current deficit in Iraq is about 34% of GDP. Our deficit in the US is 101% of GDP. This alone proves that Iraq is not on the verge of bankruptcy. Actually its deficit is about average for developing countries in relation to its GDP. And, the GDP is growing at a rate of 9% per year, meaning that the deficit, as a percentage of GDP, will fall.

The US has run for two generations with deficits, and most recently with huge deficits. Most countries run with deficits. What makes Iraq any different? Just because their revenue covered their expenses for the last 8 years doesn't mean that "the sky is falling" because they fall short one, or even two or three years.

If Europe and America can run on deficits without a catastrophe, so can Iraq.

It is not the end of the world. This is a minor setback only. The bigger issue is the security problem.

 If and when that gets solved, then the exchange rate regime can be changed and all of this deficit talk will disappear overnight. Let's keep focused on the real problem, namely security.

jdtolle  » May 20th, 2015 You are ready

If you’ve been waiting until you’re ready, the wait is over. You are ready.

You are ready, so go ahead and get started. You know enough, you have enough, you’re inspired and purposeful and creative enough to take the first step, now.

Though you have many questions, and maybe even some doubts, you are ready. Go ahead, grab the opportunity of this moment, and make your life come to life.

Achievement is never the result of figuring everything out in advance. Achievement comes when you start where you are and keep going.

Make more than mere plans, have more than just intentions, experience more than empty wishes. You are ready to follow where your passions lead and make life more amazing than it already is.

You are ready to take action. Now is the time and this is the place.
