ML's when you point how many resources USSR had traded with Nazi Germany, which allowed them to commit to their war effort in the first place.
Most of europe traded with nazi germany until the war broke out, but the US trade with nazi germany was especially egregious, as some US companies continued business and making profits during the war. Ford, GE, IBM, and Dow chemical are really bad cases. Coke even re-branded its operations in nazi germany as "fanta", to be able to continue making a profit during the war.
...there's no end to the depravity when there's a buck to be made, huh?
