How do you then account for the fact that both Germany & Japan became the USA's strongest economic competitors by the 80s, only 35yrs after armistice? They adopted the American business model. If we merely squeezed benefits from them for ourselves, I doubt very much that they could rise from the ashes with such success. Their conquerors provided them with enough freedom to regain their footing and eventually become as strong, if not stronger than they were when they deliberately plummeted the world into catastrophic wars. All other former super powers kept the nations they conquered in chains. Why do you choose not to acknowledge that fact?
