Ah, the heavy price of freedom

This tidbit showed up on my daily email newsletter from PaintandCoatings.com (registration required), which I subscribe to as a trade professional.

Our first amusing little note is that due to the finger paintings inspired by the recent elections in Iraq, purple paint there has run in short supply, boosting its price to over $90 per barrel - more expensive than Iraqi crude. Ah, freedom - indisputable proof that it's not free.

LOL - I doubt any of the industry leaders could have predicted this outcome.
