Economic confusion in 1917

This section seems to use particularly emotional language and has numerous typos. Consider removing? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mitchell316 (talk • contribs) 03:16, 8 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

the tone captures the way historians handle the very confused crisis. for example "mobilization fiascos of 1917" and "waste, artificially high prices and inefficiency characterized Army procurement" and "economic crisis" [For the Common Defense by Allan R. Millett and ‎Peter Maslowski]. Likewise Russell Weigley points to "many false starts and disappointing output" [American Way of War p 208] The countrys's transportation system --based on the railways--collapsed and companies could not send anything long distance--is that not "amazing".
