That thing's legendary, dawg. American victory in WWII was due partly to our available supply of materiel. Japan and Germany were out of gas; we were not. The more gas you have, the more sorties you can run. The more ships you can put to sea. The more tanks you can send across the Oder. Thus, stateside efforts during the war were largely given over to using every last bit of available supply and applying it to killing Japs and Nazis. Modern awareness, of course, is due to those incredulous 'tards over at Reddit, reposting from FunnyJunk because of course they did. It's not like this shit was underground. You probably recognize the bottom image.
