Yes "heckler" you are right: not only did the world "rebuild' but in addition the world & world components also dramatically changed.
A great deal of that change was brought on by vast incrediable technological advances, and there is nothing in Monday Night Football or Entertainment Tonight or American Idol or Suvivor Micronesia etc to help the vast 300 million americans understand what is happening or where their country is going. ....pjwky

lol what?
Americans rebuilt Europe and Japan.....Marshall Plan.
Look at the USA's GDP related to debt.
There is no one even close to America's wealth. Japan is a far second!
Americans rule, Liberals drool!
This is even more reason why Liberals should be rounded up and placed in a cage in New Mexico!

Maybe you haven't taken a good look at this spending government, spending us into oblivion. The entitlement budget is more that half of the annual budget, and it is the biggest source of fraud and mismanagement on earth. At least 90% of the recipiants do not deserve it, they have never lifted a finger to support themselves, and they've been ripping off hard working Americans to fund that shit.

On this subject, I say ban all entitlements.
Medicare is the worst run health Insurance in the nation.

After WWII, the U.S. was the only undamaged Industrial super power. From the 1950's thru 1975, U.S. was a creditor nation.
However, by 1978, the 80's thru today, the U.S. started its slide to where we find ourselves today.
Entering into insane unbalanced trade agreements and policies
AMERICA HAS BECOME A DEBTOR NATION.

Medicare is destroying the medical profession and driving profits to insurance companies which lobby congress, to the detriment of the population.
