Baghdad's self-proclaimed rulers said Wednesday they will use Iraqi government funds to pay all state employees their salaries this month ? with a 1,000-percent raise, and took credit for progress in getting power, water and hospitals back up and running.

They also claimed the U.S. Army recognizes their authority, meets with them daily and even drove them from Kuwait to Baghdad in American military vehicles. The United States said it doesn't even know who they are.

A 1000% raise doesn't do much good if everyone gets the same raise. I suppose it will make foreign goods 1000% cheaper to the Iraqi public.
