Exports.
Well, exporting "experts" at rebuilding Iraq.
Which means that the US will be getting Iraqi oil money.
Which will help our economy.
Short term.
I don't see much else happening. Too many things are too far gone with our economy right now.
Those oil bucks will NOT be filtering down to the average US citizen. Instead, they'll conglomorate where the other money is.
Also, there's STILL the threat from North Korea and Iran
-and-
The uncertainty of US interests in the mid-east after this. Look at the riots happening already.
