Karen,   The link below talks about a multiplier effect of 1.8 but it is attempting to promote a military program in Hawaii:           http://www.globalsecurity.org/org/news/2003/030728-cv01.htm   Here is one by a Muslim and a Jewish writer who argue that military expenditure actually has a negative impact:           http://www.econ.bgu.ac.il/papers/163.pdf   Bill          On Fri, 7 Nov 2003 04:31:03 -0800 "Karen Watters Cole" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: Yes, I remember something as recently as this summer at 1.1 or 1.2 to 3.1.  Does that sound right?     Karen,   Thanks for the reference. What I remember from basic economics was that military spending does not have the same multiplier effect as does domestic spending.   Bill   See NOW segment @ http://www.pbs.org/now/politics/defensedollars.html with sources listed at the bottom of the page.
