The US did not win World War II. The Allies did. The US depended heavily on nations like Briton in it's war efforts during world war II. For example if not for the bombing of a heavy water factory which the British were responsible for finding the Germans may well have had nuclear weapons in time to actually affect the outcome of the war. Though to the spirit of the question. Germany made a few critical mistakes during the war. A big one was rounding up so many potential soldiers and sending them to concentration camps. Jews, Gypsies, Christians, intellectuals and so on. Germany executed what may have been at least 100,000 of it's best soldiers. People eager to prove how German they were and willing to fight twice as hard to be accepted. People who may have helped build or stratigize. Germany also wasted quite a bit of resrouces transporting and guarding people as well as other military resources dealing with revolts, executing undesirable peoples for example. The genocide also provided the Allies with many excellent spies. What would have otherwise loyal Germans instead supported the Allies. Russia was a debacle. If the Germans had treated the Russians like people they may well have not found any real resistance at all. Stalin was a blood stained tyrant and even Hitler looked good initially. Hitler could have played up ethnic and nationality issues to gain Russian support. Even after those huge mistakes, Germany instead of retreating for the Winter basically executed a huge chunk of it's own army attempting to fight the Russians in Winter on Russian soil. In Asia a united China might have been a dangerous winner. Even with a common cause like kicking the Japanese out the Chinese still kept at a cival war that had allowed the Japanese into China in the first place. Loyalists to the emporer, those fighting for Democracy and Comuninists were slugging it out and sniping at the Japanese between bouts. Japan of course made the biggest mistake of all by attacking the US. The American people wanted nothing to do with another European war after so many died in World War I. There was a dedicated and active pacifist cause that sided with the isolationists on this subject. Germany should have volenteered to fight Japan for us rather than let us get into the war on that pretext. So in answer it depends on what changed. If the US had not entered the war I think Germany would have prevailed against Russia eventually. England was another matter. I think Germany would have given up on England for a time and moved into Spain instead. There they would have had their hands full with people like the Basques. Already gurillas in other areas were becoming a serious problem. Once inertia died Germany was doomed to lose many of thier gains without intervention from anybody else. So for Germany to realistically have won the war the Military would have had to have pulled a coup on the Nazis. The same political group which spurred the powerful military build up was busy destroying it after about 1942. Executions alone were decimating morale and robbing Germany of some of it's finest. Any time a political group gains power over a military branch like the SS had or what the USSR inflicted on it's armies, it will damage the ability of that army to function. The Nazis had done an effective job of sabataging the German military machine by 42. Enough so that Briton I think could have held out without US military intervention. Japan was in no way capable of beating US industry. Japan lacked the technology, raw resources and industrial base to compete with the US. Even the pacifists of that day changed stripes because of Pearl Harbour. So for Japan to survive the US had to stay out of the war. With China busy in cival war and Briton busy with Germany Japan could have quietly swallowed up much of Asia if they left US and US ally territory alone. Relations between the US and China was poor at the time. Nobody in the US had an inkling of the atrocities being commited by Japan against Chinese and Koreans. If we did it probably would not be enough to make the US go to war. Given twenty years to absorb China and much of the rest of asia and a policy of toleration then Japan could have become a very formidble enemy. Toleration however was the biggest downfall of all of the axis powers. What made Rome so successfull was that those conquered by Rome could and did eventually become Romans. Very few actual Romans fought in Roman armies late in the Roman empire. For much of the Roman empire's history people like the Celts provided calvary and other essential arms of the Roman military. Assimilation of the conquered is the only way to hold on to a conquered area other than genocide. The Mongal armies were another conquerer who was quick to assimilate those they conqured. Few successfull conquers failed to assimilate the conquered. The Islamic armies which marched all the way into Spain required only conversion of religion to become one of them. An excellent example of assimilation. Intolerance, genocide and poor treatment of those they conqured meant that German and Japanese forces could never hold the terrorites they conqured. Not with the leadership which existed by 1942. Had Germany had a military coup and put the Nazis out of business. It is highly possible that they could have used Russian political devides for their own advantage. Pacified the populations of France, Belgium, Poland, etc. They could have easily absorbed Italy, Hungry, Austria, etc. After consolidating those gains, especially Russia, and industrializing as well as organizing the local governments of these nations Germany could have easily become the greatest power the world has ever known. Removing the Nazis would not have been an easy task. Had Germany done this, instead of a cold war we'd had an active conventional war which raged on from the 60s on. Comunists and NATO intelligence did a huge amount of damage to the rest of the world fighting each other in third world nations. Many countries still hate the US for ops against the more discreet Comunists. So the US and Germany would have fought often in third world nations but openly, not the undercover sniping that happened between the US and the USSR. I suspect that a military empire would have been tyranical but not genocidal like the USSR was. So overall it would not have been as bloody to the world unless a Stalin or Hitler like leader gained power in post WWII Germany. Germany would likely have turned it's eyes on the third world and a second wave of colinization would have occured and possibly even prompted the US and UK to enter into a colinization race against Germany. So Indians for example might speak German today and nobody would know who Ghandi was. A realistic scenario of a post WWII where the Germans won the war by removing the Nazis would have meant most of the world under 2 or 3 huge nations/confederations. Nations like Canada and Australia would have likely banded together with the US or UK into a common military and political confederacy to combat the growing German empire. The Turks with German help would have likely swallowed up the Arabic world and parts of Africa. Germans would have likely taken a large chunk of Africa, most of Asia. They may have even locked horns with Japan buying breathing time for the allies as well as seeing the US supporting Japan in a war against Germany for possiession of India and China. Battles would have been of a scale never seen before. Technology would have raced along. We'd probably be at 1990s levels of technology by the 60s if Germany had survived WWII without the Nazis. War would certainly spread into space by the 70s and a battle for the moon would have taken place by the 80s or 90s. War for Mars may well have started by 2000 depending of if there was a clear winner in the war for the moon and low earth orbit. Nuclear war would not haunt a whole generations psyche like it does now. A more rational German empire would have quickly put nuclear weapons aside along with the Allies once a nuclear race proved to be the extinction of human kind. Both factions may have even agreed to cease building nuclear weapons by the late 60s. Without scientists like Einstien who fled the Nazis the US may not have built Nuclear weapons until the 50s. Without the Nazis or a similer group Germany could not have so quickly become a military power again. So US nuclear research was as assured as war in Europe. Quite an interesting map if you think of it. However the threat of being conquered by Germany would be a constant fear. It might have even destroyed democracy in many of the Allied nations and brought about governments akin to what you saw in the novel 1984. Consider the fact that martial law may well have become a perm feature of life had Germany won. Conquering America was not really feasible for this fictional Germany for at least 30-40 years. Especially given that so many nations like UK, Australia, even possibly Japan would have banded together to oppose Germany. The threat of it would have been enough to cause loss of cival liberty and constant war potentially. Depends on how aggressive Germany was after WWII. How distracted it was by revolts as well. ---- Added after reading other responses----- Russia was in a desperate state when Germany invaded. Stalin held on to power purely by fear. He'd killed millions in recent years. Russian industry and agriculture was devestated by Stalin's sometimes insane actions. Russia had zero chance of invading Germany without the US entering the war. Russia depended heavily on US supplies. Russian troops fought mostly because it was better to have an insane Russian mass murderer in power than an insane German mass murderer in power. As for why the US bombed Japan rather than Germany. Germany had already fallen by the time the atomic bomb was tested and working. Japan never had a chance in the war. Japan itself knew it. Japan's goal was to hurt America enough that America would sign a quick peace treaty. That did not happen. We dropped the atomic bomb on Japan to avoid a long and costly battle to take the Japanese mainland. Remember the Japanese considered surrender as a disgrace and would commit suicide rather than surrender. Taking the Japanese mainland would have gotten millions killed including millions of Japanese civilians. It would have decimated the population and left the entire island of Japan one big smoking pile of wreckage. It was inevitable though. With the war over in Germany, Japan would have seen the entire US military at it's door. Not just the US, but also British, Australian, Canadian, Philipino, Thai, Indian and even troops from nations like France and Italy. Whole generations of Japenese men would have been wiped out. Japanese as a distinct people may have ceased to exist. Dropping the atomic bomb was a far more humanitarian way to finish the war. I feel that the first bomb should have been dropped on a sparsely populated military facility rather than a real city. Other than that I feel the US did the right thing for everybody concerned in using the Atomic bomb. Answered By: draciron - 4/19/2006

Facts: We are talking about the world-war 2 and there were other "Small" countries like UK (and people from countries that this country ruled at this point in time, eg. India), France, Russia. Or maybe I was mistaken. Same applies to the "Victorious country" part. Now that we have gotten that out of the way, if the "Allies" would have lost the war. Japan would have been the world ruler with the biggest can of "Whoop A$$". They were "Hiroshima-Nagasaki"ed out of their war ambitions and devoted for the economic and moral reconstruction of the country. Had that not happened they would be ruling the world right now (with weapons I mean, they are almost ruling the world economically before China/India syndrome happned). With Japan at the top, we definitely would be seeing many more interesting and at least 200?ore efficinet weapons of mass destruction. So there is some respite in the fact the US won and now controls the majority of the world arms production. Answered By: AC - 4/19/2006

	How do I get a job with Dodgy work history and no experience? Basically- no degree, although I have tried completing one in the past and stopped because of physical and mental health issues which were overwhelming to deal with along with going to classes full time. I'm not stupid and I am quite articulate. I am 23 and have only worked for about two years retail in high school and stopped working to go to university. I worked a few months in 2010 retail after I dropped out but it was only a seasonal position, and the only reason why I have not been able to constantly work is because of mental health issues. I had also tried going back to community college during my free time since i left university in 2008/9 and I had panic attacks while in community college, which made my anxiety worse from then on. Well recently I met a good doctor and he prescribed me some meds that are stabilizing my moods and I feel the best I've felt in years, and I'm ready to work. Thing is, I don't know how to get a job now since I've spent literally years being depressed and anxious doing nothing. I don't really have anything to put on my resume, and I never finished my AA degree either. All I've done is cashiering and although I do the job well and I get promoted easily when I do these jobs because I'm a hard worker and I try to go above and beyond what they ask of me,which is the attitude I have no matter what kind of work I'm doing as long as I'm getting paid. But I hate cashiering because it's too easy and I want a job that is more interesting. Any suggestions for me on how to get a job that is NOT Retail with the type of background I have right now? I also realize I have to go to college to get certain types of jobs, I am talking about what I can do right here right now. 1 answer - Asked By: Alex Prieto - 10/14/2012

	What to wear to a job interview VS a career fair? So I have a nice white button up shirt, business skirt and pants, and a suit jacket. I'm applying for a software development job and I'm very short and can look young so I'm trying to look adult, yet professional. I'm also attractive so I'm trying not to look too sexy. For the career fair I'm thinking of wearing just my nice shirt and a skirt with low heels. My reasoning being it's approachable and attractive without going overboard since the career fair hosts are mostly younger male recent grads. I want to be remembered but not intimidating. For my interviews I was thinking pants, suit jacket (power suit). My reasoning being it'll be older execs and HR people (mostly women) so less sexy with the pants but more powerful with the suit jacket. What do you think?! 2 answers - Asked By: Beast - 9/23/2012

	Why can't people see that technology will soon cause civil war in the USA? Advances in technology will soon cause 70-80?nemployment in the USA. How will all those millions of people eat, then? That will lead to a conflict between Social Market-ists (gov't imposed wealth redistribution) and Free Market-ists (no gov't imposed wealth redistribution). First, the Luddite Fallacy. It WAS valid UNTIL machines could do most human mental functions better than humans. Some experts are already saying this, but generally it seems like the American Society and its leaders are proceeding in utter ignorance. You probably know about all the technologies that now exist or will soon be up & running, & which will massively reduce the need for human labor in the economy, thus MAKING MOST HUMANS UNNECESSARY to the economy. Some facts: (1) A couple weeks ago all the toll booth workers on the Golden Gate Bridge were all dismissed because the gov't bought a machine to handle everything. (2) Computer voice recognition already exists, in programs such as Siri and Google Voice and others. But very soon these programs will be so much better. Virtually all the human-staffed customer service call centers will disappear very soon. Human office receptions will be mostly eliminated. (3) McDonald's already has a prototype version of their fast food restaurant with NO human workers on site. (4) Wal-Mart & other retailers already have plans for stores with NO human cashiers. (5) Google's driverless cars and trucks will soon eliminate most drivers of commercial trucks & taxi cabs. (6) IBM's computer "Watson" defeated the best human players on "Jeopardy" about a year ago. Watson had to hear and understand host Alex Trebeck's spoken speech just like the human contestants. IBM created Watson to replace Medical Doctors. The plan is that nurses and nurses practitioners will take data from patients (temperate, blood pressure, reports of pains, etc.), enter that into Watson, and Watson will order tests and make prescriptions and treatment plans. Unlike human doctors, Watson will KNOW EVERYTHING about medical science. Doctor errors currently kill about 100,000 patients per year in hospitals alone. Patients will DEMAND to be diagnosed by Watson (or other equivalent) & have a prescription by Watson, since studies will show that patients fare so MUCH better when Watson is their “doctor,” and the cost will be MUCH less. (7) Computers are now replacing the lawyers that formerly had to spend massive hours read through massive amounts of documents turned over to the opposing side in "discovery" in civil lawsuits. Documents now are turned over in digital form, and computers search in seconds them looking for key words and phrases. (8) Soon publishers will stop printing books on paper. Everyone will have an e-Reader device. That will be the END of every physical library and bookstore. (9) Soon computers will be able to general characters in movies that are indistinguishable from real humans. Not only actors will lose their jobs, but costume people, makeup people, scene construction people, camera operators, key grips, electricians, lighting experts, etc. (10) New machines are replacing the humans who pick vegetables in fields. (11) New machines are replacing human security guards. (12) Human airplane pilots, both in the military and in commercial service, will soon be extinct. The FAA has already approved testing of drone planes for commercial transportation of non-human cargo. (13) Most trades on Wall Street are already being made by computers. (14) The U.S. Postal Service is doomed. Paying thousands of people to drive around in little trucks to deliver little printed pieces of paper to each household each day is going to seem more and more like idiocy. (15) Most of the reviews and analysis currently being done by human accountants, actuaries, tax experts, and other financial analysts and consultants will be done must better, more more quickly, and much more accurately, by computers. (16) Web sites already are using computer programs to write the text for stories that report on sports games. The program integrates the statistics from the game into a story text that seems to have been written by a human being. (17)Most education at the college and high school level will soon be done online, eliminating a massive number of workers. Thus, GIGANTIC UNEMPLOYMENT, in the range of 70-80?is coming soon to the USA. This will result in Rio De Janeiro type slums all over the USA. That will result in calls for gov't wealth redistribution, which will result in Armed Revolution, Counter-Revolution, concentration camps, & Latin American-style death squads. The rich and ultra-rich are never going to let any government get control of their wealth. Huge bloody CONFLICT is coming. * * * Politicians keep repeating the old canard that the solution is to train and retrain Americans for the "jobs of the future." But they are either morons or are lying, since anyone who thinks about it can easily see that even if every American worker had an engineering degree or a computer science degree, the economy just doesn't need that many engineers and computer scientists. * * * * * * * Why don't more people see this? Why aren't more people talking about this? We are facing soon a catastrophe in the USA (and in other places) on par of the plagues in Europe that killed half of the population in certain areas, and on par with the depopulation in Europe brought about by WWI and WWII. Sure, you can just repeat the Luddite Fallacy, and proclaim that the economy will always create enough jobs for most people to survive. But there is no law of economics that says that any law of economics will always operate the same. Laws of economics are not like the laws of physics. Economies and life forms can and do evolve in fundamental ways that make former economic models and ways of life obsolete. I'm sure the last tribe of Neanderthals were certain that nothing was ever going to change, right before the Homo Sapiens swooped down on them, chased them into a dead end canyon were other Homo Sapiens were lying in wait with big clubs. * * * * * * * * * In the past the Luddite Fallacy was valid since machines always needed the mental acuity that only human operators could provide, and machines frequently needed maintenance by skilled human hands and minds. But now machines have mental functions that equal or surpass what humans can provide in most work functions. And computers aren't so much repaired anymore as just thrown away and replaced. How many cell phone repair shops have you ever seen? Even most laptop computers are replaced rather than repaired. More and more laptop computers never even need to be repaired for years and years. In short, when the economy has no use for most Americans, all hll is going to brake loose, & that's coming soon. * * * * 2 answers - Asked By: Perro Americano Invicto - 5/16/2013
