>>A lot of otherwise unemployed people were killed. That's an aspect of our coming out of the last depression that isn't often mentioned. There were other factors of course, which have been chewed over endlessly.<<

It was not the war, but the stimulous of the war that created full employment that brought us out of the depression. If we could have spent the money on infrasturcture instead, we would have been much better off with the same results.
