Johnc,
“Didn’t we have to bail Britain and France out of two world wars?? Then feed them and rebuild their economies?”
umm, only one WW, cuz for the first Germans did bail us in spite of their will
Also had the Americans pilots been a bit more precise, they wouldn’t had be able to destroy all our bridges, railsways, harbours, our whole or part of most of our cities, except inner Paris, oh, I forgot, de Gaulle made sure that they couldn’t deliver Paris, cuz Patton wanted to make the revue of follies there, I dunno in what state we would have found the Bergères then !!!

the bail out, ah yes, the Marshall plan, umm dunno if the soviet architecture would have driven 80 million tourists pro year otherwise !!! the plan was ment to rebuilt the infrastructures that the bombings dammaged !!! and to make sure that the business could restart with the capitalists, umm, coca-cola became a famous drink stuff, I tell ya after a rutabaga diet, it was like a small Jesus with a velvet costum that went through your throat !!! and so many other stuffs, movies, arms, yes, indeed we need arms to make a new war, where about, in Indochina !!!
so you see then Vodka never became our favorite drink, the fascinating babouchka didn’t came around, though the slavic charm was wellknown !!!
