future government spending will fall to levels comparable with the 1930s
For the period 1930-1938 Government spending on Defence averaged at 9.67% (compared to the current 6%), although it did peak to 75% in the early 40's...! Start writing your wish lists.....

Written with my tongue firmly in my cheek as I'm fully aware we had neither an NHS or much of a welfare system to speak of then!
