For you financial types: The Saddam Oil Shuffle
2004-10-28
There's a lot of money to be made when governments set the price of oil. See how the game worked for Saddam Hussein and some lucky oil traders participating in the oil-for-food program.

I'm not even going to try to pick out the significant bits -- this is about money, which I've never understood - much to my husband's dismay. But this Forbes mag. journalist seems to have made a pretty thorough examination of the books. Have fun! (And if someone would be so kind as to summarize for us duffers, my heartfelt thanks!!)
