So I guess the US isn’t bankrupt after all, if we can spend trillions on another mideast war?

I always thought that, but have read other places now that some of the people elected a couple years before the War started putting a stop to some of FDR’s policies, as well as the Supreme Court ruling against FDR on a couple of things was what started the turn-around.

But I’m no expert!

The primary reason we did so well after WWII was the decimation of the European industrial base. We were basically the only game in town for the longest time, an invasion of Iran will most likely be much different with much different results.
