1946. Europe has 99 problems, but a dictator ain’t one! A genocida - A fasci-- a *German* dictator ain’t one! Booyah! Unfortunately, it still had 99 other problems. Famine, energy shortage, housing shortage, unemployment, monetary instability, trade imbalances, foreign exchange shortages, social discontent, communist subterfuge, industrial decline, things were… not great. But this is a happy episode, you know why? Because Europe fixed it. And because America saw a series of complicated inter-connected problems that primarily affected impoverished people on the other side of the world, and they invested in fixing it. With their government. [mind blown sounds]
This is a video about the Marshall Plan, where America gave Europe lots of money to rebuild after it had finished blowing itself up over… I dunno, silly reasons. For once just a good, wholesome story about what can be achieved in politics when smart people put their heads together in an honest attempt to solve 99 challenging problems.
