One might argue that England would have survived WWII even if the United States hadn't directly entered the war, but it's hard to say that about China, and nobody in Europe seemed to care, as far as I know. Only FDR seemed willing to act to get Japan off their backs. > Also, "anarchist control > freak" sounds like a contradiction of terms to me, but I wouldn't know, > not having met any anarchists. I've known a number of anarchists -- at least, if you count libertarian followers of Ayn Rand who believe "government = evil". They sure weren't "control freaks". More like "out of control freaks". Last I heard, FDR had been kind of in favor of a significant role for government in many things, and favored government-mediated solutions to some of the world's problems. That doesn't seem like a description of an anarchist to me.
