Win,

WW2 was, in current terms, trillions of dollars and the 'consensus' throughout the '30's was for peace. Here in the US that prevailing consensus held until late 1941, despite millions killed in Spain, Poland, Etheopia and China.

On the other hand we had a consensus of both parties lead us into Vietnam...

Beware fashion :-)
