Constant and shifting equivocation in the Commander-in-Chief is not something that will enable us to win the war. We need someone who, whatever his shortcomings, was willing to say that he looked Putin in the eye and saw KGB

No. The Depression didn’t really end until Ike started deregulating, undoing all the chains and ropes with which FDR had bound up American Enterprise and Industry. What the war brought us was not recovery but a depression with full employment. Wartime wage controls kept wages so low that the people as a whole were not better off than they were before the war. They just all had jobs. “Patch it! Wear it out! Use it up!” Same slogans.
