7. Sorry, but that doesn't make any sense friend
All you are doing with your spending habits is insuring that American workers don't have jobs. One way or another, Bushco is going to get the monies needed to carry out his war. By buying from overseas, you are putting American workers out of business, and into a situation where their only option for continuing employment is to join one of the Iraqi merc companies(KBR, Haliburton, etc.) or join the Army itself. Thus, you aren't preventing the tax money(which is an income tax, not a sales tax or tariff) but you are also insuring a pool of good military candidates that have no other option. Not bright friend, not bright at all.
