And those who do not understand that being low on dollar assets is not the same as being broke i.e without any assets, belong in the economic madhouse.Let us assume for a while that the UK government and treasury was a bunch of imbecile morons.
Let us further assume that the fabolous knowledge of all the people who claim that somehow the UK would have been able to pay gets to those imbecile morons so they can pay for 100% of what they got OTL from the USA.
So assuming an ASB UK wank where is the Entente?
Russia is still in the ropes, the French army will no longer attack, the UK cannot beat the Germans in France and the political leadership knew perfectly well that a victory against Germany is not coming soon.
How do you motivatie your soldiers to fight on if a peace proposal as outlined already a couple of times comes up? You simply do not. The UK would jump for it being the big winner with all its waraims fulfilled, the French cannot fight alone.
So even ignoring economic facts a draw is the most likely outcome. But I am at a loss how to argue economic facts with people who insist that countries cannot go broke. That is like arguing with people about the fate of the Titanic who claim that ships cannot sink.
