You lived through the 70's...Jimmy Carter's economics and political
decisions almost bankrupted this nation, both financially and in fact.
Sounds like gunnery nursie didn't get promotion that time...
Sorry to break in on a comment that I didn't see the first time
here, Len.
If a person believes that President Carter's economic and political
policies almost bankrupted the country, I would suggest looking up the
historical date of August 15, 1971. See what happened on that date, and
the consequences of that action.
I'll see if anyone knows this one before giving it away.
Nobody have it yet? Jim, you're usually good at this sort of thing.
I thought I'd let others have a crack at it.
August 15, 1971: USA abandoned the gold standard.
Guess who was president.....
73 de Jim, N2EY
