Participantdoes this interesting cartoon make the case for ruin, or contradict the case? After all, the cartoon is ostensibly from ~75 years in the past, and clearly we were not in ruin the entire 75 years, so something must have happened.
If we think things are cyclical and the period T is 79 yrs (crash 1929 + 79 = crash 2008), then our nemesis of convenience
– failed to grab power by force in 2002
– will be elected in 2011
– will invade poland 2017
– will face our forces starting in 2020
(Yay! end of downturn)
– will eat his pistol in 2024Unless the US is the new UK, in which case we will suffer heavy bombardment from 2019 – 2020, and *China’s* entry into the war saves us.

Notice the character in the bottom left. “Bust the Government” Blame Captilism etc.
The same lies told back then about who was to blame are the same lies being told now.
The Government spending they did back then did nothing. Unemployment was still 17% in 1939.
The spending we are doing now will not work either. Why should it?
Smart people learn from past mistakes.
