Nothing new here. We abandoned a huge amount of equipment overseas after World War 2.
More than abandoned it. Lots of stuff was dumped into the ocean.
The Roosevelt regime believed that it was good for the economy to make things then destroy them. Kind of a weird “potlatch” sort of deal.
There were millions out of work and on short rations, and the Roosevelt regime thought it a good idea to buy hogs, kill them, and bury them.
It wasn't dropped into the lap of an active Death Cult though, was it?
