I am not going to go down this stupid road where we compare what happens when you have F***ing warships stopping all traffic from one side, and forcing all the shipping traffic over to the other, all the while borrowing, spending, inflating, and so forth.
Numbers after the economic tampering caused by blockade are meaningless.
Yes, if you hold back your opponent in the race, you are going to win.
