Perhaps the WORST decision ever made by the US Congress was cancelling the Lend Lease debt.
Really, you sure about that?

Some of these loans were only paid off in the early 21st century. On 31 December 2006, Britain made a final payment of about $83m (£45.5m) and thereby discharged the last of its war loans from the US. By the end of World War II Britain had amassed an immense debt of £21 billion.

Saved the South Korean people from enslavement, is not a fact?

Saving Western Europe from the clutches of Stalin after WW2, is not a fact?
Sheesh even a tornado cannot twist as fast as you :-)

You stated "should have gone home after WWII" & then presented THAT as a fact. What are you trying to do? Alter history to suit your thought pattern?

As for South Korea, your "fact" all depends on who you are referring to in saving them :-)

Negative accusation. Never said, despite your false accusation, said "should".

For good and bad. The USA, for whatever reason, did not go home after WW2, leaving you and Western Europe in Stalin's clutches.

IF we did go home and not interfere...

IF we did not go to war after Kim's grandfather attempted to enslave the South Korean people. The South Korean people would today, be murdered and enslaved by the Kim family.

Why do you believe Western Europe and the South Korean people would have been better off today, if we didn't interfere with the evil threatening them?

As we should have done after WW2.
Again WHO is the we you keep referring to?

Perhaps the WORST decision ever made by the US Congress was cancelling the Lend Lease debt.

It's obvious from postings here that old adage "If you don't pay for it, you don't appreciate it." is VERY true.

And the US is STILL paying everybody else's tab in NATO, the UN, SEATO, and FEEDING most of the world.

Hold your bowls higher, beggars.

If the lend lease debt was cancelled, how come the UK made annual payments, paying back the debt on 29th December 2006.

And take a while to think were the US would be without the gifts of radar, sonar, jet engines, antitank weaponry, rockets, superchargers, gyroscopic gunsights, submarine detection, self-sealing fuel tanks, plastic explosives and lets not forget the the cavity magnetron, described at the time as the most valuable cargo to reach US shores ever in 1940 plus the contribution we made to the Manhattan Project. And then you refused to let us have the atomic weapons technology so that we had to develop our own so that we did not have the atomic bomb until 1952.

Pick any or a combination, excepting the USA, that would have been able to stop Kim's grandfather from enslaving the South Korean people.
All those listed & they would have succeeded all because one man would not have been in control.

Name that man :-)

Annyeong.
Seems like some here have more problem to get along than Kim Jong-un and Moon Jae-in have.
Wait a minute. I know one girl from Korea called Kim.
And Moon. But is she's not a Valley Girl?...

WOW, the silence is deafening :-)

What happened to all those shouts of "We're going home"?

What happened to all those shouts of "Anything outside of CONUS is no concern of ours"?

What happened to all those shouts of "Enjoy your replacements"?

It seems the "hillbillies" occupying the swamp want to stay centre stage :-)
