Best Answer

The war-stimulated economy was booming. The hand of government touched more American lives more intimately during the war than every before; every household felt the constraints of the rationing system. Following the war, the national debt rose from $49 billion in 1941 to $259 billion in 1945. Most of the war costs were borrowed.
