One thing that no one has mentioned here so far is:
Since WWII, the US has transitioned to a "service" economy rather than production/manufacturing base. We simply do not have as many factories we could convert to war production.
Would we be able to produce war materiel in enough quantities for a war that would surely outstrip the worst case supply scenarios?
America produced 300,000 aircraft in WWII. Do you think we'd be capable of producing 3,000 if we needed them within the first year?
