War Finance

The colossal scale of World War II required a mobilization effort greater than anything attempted in all of the world's history. The United States had to fight a war across two oceans and three continents - and to do so it had to build and equip a military that was all but nonexistent before the war began. Never in the nation's history did it have to create, outfit, transport, and supply huge armies, navies, and air forces on so many distant and disparate fronts.The Axis powers might have fielded better trained soldiers, better weapons, better tanks and aircraft.

On September 12, 2013, Twitter released to the press that it would become as a publicly traded company via IPO. This document goes over the facts of both Twitter and Facebook, and then I recommend my opinionated choice at which one to buy after stating all the facts and concerns over each company. I have used both Twitter and Facebook, which gives me a stronger, more valid opinion to choose the choice that I did.
