I don't like it either, but I think their standing army is greater than the entire population of the US. Was a few years ago, anyway. Unless we went nuclear rather quickly, they'd simply overwhelm us-Much as we did Germany in WW2. Germany, ultimately, didn't stand a chance against out industrial might-Which ain't there anymore.

And this is what gets me with all the people who want to let the (former) Big 3 fail. Should another big war break out do y'all think for one moment that Toyota, et al are going to build our tanks and trucks. If you believe that we are having a special on the Bay Bridge this week.

That was sort of my point when I asked who was buying hummer. Now I may be mistaken if AM General is not on the block but I assumed it was.
