guns and butter

guns and butter
амер.; полит.
политика "пушек и масла" (политика, основанная на стремлении осуществить как военную, так и внутриэкономическую программы) [выражение появилось в 60-х г. XX в., когда США вели войну во Вьетнаме и одновременно пытались осуществить программу "Великое общество" президента Л. Джонсона. Выражение является видоизменением оборота guns before butter]

...while it may be true technically and from a monetary point of view that you can have guns and butter, it is a fact of life that where your heart is there your money will go, and the heart of Administration is in the war in Vietnam. (D. Martin Luther King, Jr, ‘The New York Times’, DNE) — ...технически и с финансовой точки зрения, может быть, и возможно совместить пушки и масло, но факт остается фактом, что деньги идут на то, к чему лежит ваша душа, а душа американской администрации лежит к войне во Вьетнаме.

President Johnson is finding it hard to keep Congress sold on the idea of "guns and butter" in this war period. (‘US News and World Report’) — Во время войны президенту Джонсону было нелегко все время убеждать конгресс в правильности правительственной политики "пушек и масла"
