100% mate. Never underestimate the might & power of the US and North America Industrialization , Manufacturing , and overall Market appetite.

Now I know these are different economic times of course . But let us not forget that even back in 1943 when Roosevelt enacted the War Production Board headed up by Sears Roebuck Vice President Donald M. Nelson following its entry into WWII by the attack on Pearl Harbor by Japan in 1941.

Back then , when the US went to work and in the span of just 2 years by 1943 , their Industrial annual output was measured in equivalent military terms as producing a Tank every 5 minutes , a Plane every half hour , as well as an Aircraft Carrier every week.

In fact the combined total of 18 shipyards at that time in the US were producing 3 off 14,000 ton cargo ships every single day.

In fact by 1943 and in just 2 years after Pearl Harbor , America could produce 24 Aircraft Carriers in the same time that Japan produced just ONE !!

And just prior to Roosevelt's famous State of the Union address following Japan's attack and Hitlers Germany declaring war on the US , the US was alleged to be officially represented by only around 100,000 enlisted full time soldiers , but by the time they got to 1944 , they had reached a massive 15 million strong FULLY trained armed forces.

So yeah .....Nothing has really changed in that regards - except that Wall Street has got BIGGER and more powerful with more extended reach than ever before. So NEVER underestimate the resolve and power of the United States and North America .......as well as the Australians & Canadians. If they want something done , they will get it done.
