>> By definition a recession is only ended when spending increases, ie when products are being bought and jobs are being created... Maybe you have an example to the contrary..?

If government spending can end a recession, the definition is a poor one that makes no sense whatsoever.

>> Did going on a spending spree to build and purchase weapons have anything to do with it???

Perhaps, but had the collective attitude of Americans not changed in the interim as soon as the spending stopped, the recession would have been back.

You're too f*cking stupid to discuss this. Go talk to someone else.
