Iraq for Sale is a documentary made by Robert Greenwald about the anti-free market economic policies being employed by the U.S. government in the pursuit of its war in Iraq. Specifically, it looks at various neo-mercantilist businesses (e.g. Halliburton), as well as the government’s policy of doling out no-bid contracts and destructive cost-plus allocations which have the effect of removing the incentive for private companies to work efficiently and control expenses.

8/28/07 This semester, we have moved our meetings from Thursday evenings to Tuesday evenings, from 6:30 to 8:00 PM. Meetings will now be held in room 238 of Lecture Hall. Lecture hall is that odd building in the middle of campus under which students typically walk when going from the Union to the Beach. To get to room 238, the easiest way is to walk up the ugly concrete ramp, which is out front of Linthicum Hall, to the right. We apologize for any inconvenience. Former News |
