War always gets the US Economy going strong. At least that happened during WWII. We made P47's and LST here where I live during WWII. And we manufactured 50 Cal bullets here as well. Evansville was humming with productivity, and everyone had a job here during WWII. But WWIII won't be the same. We were protected by an ocean during WWII, but that ocean can't protect us anymore with modern weapons capable of crossing the ocean in minutes not days.

Hmmm... WWII production was great for mega companies, and lots of small ones too, but it didn't stop or even help in any way the middle to low income families of America who even if they had a job worked for min wages and could not find stuff on the shelf, back then they called in rationing.
