we are in a wartime economy

That is a stretch. This is not a wartime economy by any measure. No industries have been mobilized, no one has been drafted, rationing has not begun. Not that it will stay this way, but this is not a wartime economy.

I agree. When GM is building tanks and Humvees full time then we will be in a wartime economy. This reminds me of Lyndon "guns and butter" Johnson during the Vietnamese War...
