Britain was bankrupt by their Empire that they couldn’t hold onto. The same way the US is bankrupt, except we lost every war since 2.

[Chad C. Mulligan]

No, Britain was bankrupted by American demands for payment in gold for every airplane, truck, barrel of oil, shipload of food or box of bullets they bought from us from 1938 until we entered the war. Thank the American isolationists. They were so broke by 1940 that the arrival of Norway's sovereign gold store after the Nazi invasion was a miracle. You people watch a couple of videos and think you know history. It's appalling, the ignorance.
