My Mom was a Rosie the Riveter making parts for P-39 Air Cobras.

Where is all that singleminded purpose today?
Oh there is a single minded purpose … Starting at the top. To turn the USA to a woke DEI, CRT/1619, version of the USSA.

E.g. Gov't sanctioned open borders … for one …

P-39s! Great looking aircraft, unique with the engine behind the pilot.

Don't forget, there are a whole bunch of us in the middle who don't buy ideas from either side!

FWIW, I don't like either side, politically speaking. I think they're both disconnected from the life of the nation, and fundamentally less interested in its well-being than their own prosperity. They're both corrupt and in hock to people who hate our country, whether they be Saudi terrorists or Chinese communists, and they routinely prioritize recommendations from the "international community" over the rights and interests of the people they're willing to send in harm's way. This is not a sustainable situation for a democracy.

Well the US is a Capitalist society. Generally, profit is made, workers are paid and both the business is are taxed, etc.

War is good for business …
War is bad for business …
But no matter how bad it gets someone makes a profit …
