@Hurley/Troll: - You just admitted you were wrong
Not at all. And what’s more, you still haven’t answered the question up above, troll.
The point is that it was not private inductry that finally lifted us out of teh Depression
Uhm… yeah. It was. The government can’t pay for anything without getting the money from somewhere.
Private industry – driven by the war, to produce – was responsible for the recovery. That production – like all the other costs of the war – was paid for by taxpayers and war bond purchases. See above. Any way you slice it, the funding ultimately came from private enterprise or employment in a private enterprise.
What’s more, FDR’s policies made the Depression last longer than it would have without his socialist “New Deal” meddling.
@Steve P: Irrespective of the reasons for it, the comic irony in your original statement makes it pretty stupid. Don’t sweat it. Everyone embarrasses themselves at one point or another. You don’t respect anyone here enough to care anyway.
