yep, the right keeps confirming that LIBERALS have the right ideas.
LIBERAL KEYNESIAN economcs, not right wing bull****, makes an economy
grow.

yet the right wants to continue its bizarre faith based economics.

There was a lot more complexity to the investment in WWII.

We were investing our money in an enterprise to destroy all of our
competition ... literally.

We built the bombs that laid waste to the industrial capacity of
virtually all of our competition while the rest of the western world
paid us to build them more bombs.

yep. a govt spending program.

That is not likely to happen today.

absolutely agree. the right wing believes in 'american exceptionalism'
which is another term for '**** the US'

he industrial capacity has left
the country.

yep. we destroyed the unions and manufactuing. cause and effect.
strong unions lead to strong manufacturing

Nukes have made that an unlikely prospect tho. That is why we have had
to declare wars, for no particular reason, on backward countries who
can't really fight back. Our idea of the WWII prosperity today is the
million dollars a man we **** away in Iraq and Afghanistan. It is
really not providing much employment and we are doing more damage to
our own economy than we are to the rest of the world.

WWII analogies simply do not apply.

sure they do. govt spending is govt spending. deficit spending is
deficit spending. the results are the same
