Our manufacturing capacity is not what it was back then. We are too high tech. Ukraine is using a lot of Soviet era tech. If we want to continue to supply Ukraine, we need to get our $#it together. In the long run, Russia will win because it’s easier to manufacture their war materials in the factories. With an emphasis on quantity rather than quality.

"Quantity has a quality all its own."

There is no way we could match our output from WWII. 1200 warships and 99 carriers. 86,000 tanks, 300,000 airplanes... including a new B-24 every 55 minutes. All in about 4 years.
And it isn’t just war factories. We don’t make steel, lumber, and our betters are stopping food production every way they can.
Worst of all, the workforce is lazy and simply would not participate.

It’s amazing that a population of less than half of today did that and with twice the population I doubt we could do 10% of that today.

OMG, I’m going to REPORT YOU for going against the Neocon philosophy. The NERVE of saying that quantity has its own quality is simply NOT ALLOWED here, as it makes sense (since Russians think the same), and is why we’re getting our asses kicked.

Now, please, APOLOGIZE!!!

Given how Western stocks have performed in the Ukraine, the quality is debatable. Patriot PAC3 performed abysmally- the reason Abrams and F16s haven’t been delivered is because their performance or lack thereof would shatter the myth of USA military supremacy (and jeopardize Lockheed sales). USA/ NATO training has also been proven wanting in the most recent “counteroffensive”. The USA is not capable of waging the industrial warfare you degenerate neocon scum thirst for.
