oh jesus....again....ww1 is supposed to be all hamiltons...fault...what a joke....but the lorenzo clown kind of picks his wars there....what about ww2..if we didn't have systems in place such as big credit lines a strong manufacturing base and a powerful defence system we would have been up shit creek in ww2 and this lecture might have been in german or japanees or russian for that matter....anyway lorenzo is probably used to talking to kids at the college he worked at as a big fat school marm.

Wow, he really makes a compelling argument about the Hamiltonian revolution of 1913! Also, he is right when he says that no one benefitted from World War I. People often times forget this. We are always given the example of World War II as having been some kind of just war because of the atrocities of Hitler. But we have to keep in mind that without World War I, there would've been no Hitler and no World War II.
