@Hurley/Troll: I guess it wasn’t the Government that paid for WWII.
Guessed correctly. It wasn’t the Government, it was the taxpayers who paid for WWII. The taxes they paid and the War Bond they purchased (essentially, Treasury Bills) provided the funding. No different from today’s bailouts.
Taxes come from… surprise… private enterprise, i.e., corporate, income and sales taxes. People purchase government bonds with money made via… surprise… private enterprise.
In fact, I’m waiting with bated breath for BHO’s first implication that taxing Americans for the bailouts and taxing Americans to pay for “stimulus” to fight the sagging economy (read: redistribute to people who didn’t earn it) are the “moral equivalent of war”.
And you still haven’t answered the question up above, troll.
