The Depression wasn't the only thing Harding set us up for. Isolationism never works. People say,"I don't care. " The problem with that it that thing they don't care about does get up and go away.

'A stitch in time saves nine.' .... Isolationists are the type determined to stitch all ten and then blame someone else that they weren't warned earlier when in fact they usually were...... usually repeatedly.

And now the event outside our borders most likely to affect us is fading from the news and increasingly treated as a nuisance when mentioned. Funny, the countries bordering this event are buying up every piece of arms on the planet. Maybe after their 500 plus years of experience they know ksmething we don't.
