He is saying after such episodes, interest rates shot up and currency worth less than toilet paper=no funding to sustain a big military. <br /><br />You know, they say, history doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes.Julia Wonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07723630301943416344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7982981413278241287.post-56233023645911943102010-01-11T19:41:35.431-07:002010-01-11T19:41:35.431-07:00Dave,
