>>'Course it did, with gunboats and carrier groups and such. <ng><<

terry, i think the gunboats KEPT us rich. there is a BIG difference.

>>Sure, those same damn gunboats. <g><<

there is something to be said for big gun boats ;-) but that isn't the end of the story and i think the future will show that a strong military alone does not, in and of itself, instill confidence in currency.

>>I thought the Constitution made America? For the rest, I agree entirely.<<

didn't american wanna-bees make the constitution? or did the govt make the constitution? ;-)
