That last one is a trick question. Depends on how you define “war”. By some accounts we never stopped being in a state of war somewhere since well before 1998. But if you ask congress, last time was WWII.
It’s not a trick question. It’s obviously referring to a war on the scale of WW2. A total war that requires major government intervention in the economy and everyday life. That’s why it says “full scale war,” not merely “war.” The last full-scale war we had was WW2.
Then there was the War on Drugs, the War on Terror, etc.
Remain in a constant state of some sort of war, and you can rationalize militarizing all your multi-redundant law enforcement agencies over every square inch of the map.
