To an outsider, a lot of it rings true.
Perhaps it's not right, but it feels like the present-day US is a country forged out of a war. WWI brought it to the high-stakes table. Then the Great Depression was, it seems, "saved" by WWII - massive mobilisation of economy, industrialisation and subsequent recovery boom. Had WWII not happened, could the US have collapsed there and then in 1940s?
