Will the dollar be a casualty of the Iran War? President Trump's unconstitutional and unjust war

against Iran is setting back his affordability agenda. The war has caused a big rise in gasoline prices.

Among the related concerns is the hindering of the movement of oil through the Straits of Hermuz,

the only available passage for ships to transport oil from the Persian Gulf.

The increased costs will do more than raise prices at the pump.

An increasing gas prices brings increased transportation costs that will be passed along to the

consumers. Prices are a variety of goods, including food, will increase.

No wonder, Energy Secretary Chris Wright, White House Chief of Staff, Susan Wiles,

and other Trump administration officials are frantically working to develop policies to lower gas prices. One possibility under consideration is deploying

U.S. troops to try to ensure ships can pass through the straits of her moves. This could turn

into a permanent deployment of U.S. troops. According to the Center for Strategic and

International Studies, the U.S. government is spending about $891.91 million a day on the Iran war.

These costs are likely to increase as the war drags on and the U.S. increases

its military presence, possibly even putting boots on the ground in Iran. According to numerous

media reports, the Trump administration is preparing a $50 billion supplemental funding request

for the Iran War. This request will soon be sent to Congress. This funding would be added

on top of the defense budget. The supplemental bill is likely to pass with overwhelming

bipartisan support. The Trump administration's $50 billion price tag is a floor, not a ceiling.

Senators and representatives will seek to add their spending priorities to this

must-pass legislation, while corporate lobbyists are no doubt already preparing wish lists to present to

lawmakers. The cause of the Iran War will further increase the already over $38 trillion in rising national

debt.
