Re: The University of Chicago Explain the Logic of the War!

Our analysis also indicates that war and forcible regime change will
yield large improvements in the economic well-being of most
Iraqis relative to their prospects under the containment policy,
and that the Iraqi death toll would likely be greater under
containment.

That's nice, are STEVEN J. DAVIS, KEVIN M. MURPHY, and ROBERT H. TOPEL going to move to Iraq and cash in on the stated humanitarian benefits of war vs. containment? Perhaps they will be able to test their hypothesis and inform the American public of the validity of that statement... if they live.
