    You just noticed?

    What do you think Lend-Lease was? After all, England brought the concept with them to the US the colonies. It was, after all, a huge part if why the colonies revolted - the stamp tax England enacted against its colonies to pay for wars that had nothing to do with those colonies.

    Funny Danes would complain about this today since they were doing it in the 1500’s.
