How did the civil war provide an economic stimulus?
The South had relied upon their slave labor for their economy to run. By the time the Civil war was over their economy was ruined.

Did the government ever pay the bonuses to the World War 1 veterans?
The Bonus Act was replaced by service certificates awarded to veterans under the World War Adjusted Compensation Act of 1924 with bonds issued by the Treasury Department in denominations of $50. The bonds paid interest at an annual rate of 3 percent from June 15, 1936, to June 15, 1945, higher than rates available to savings accounts. Amounts less than $50 were paid immediately. The bonds could not be sold, but the Treasury would redeem them for cash at any time after June 15, 1936. Most veterans redeemed their bonds promptly. The Treasury issued bonds worth $1.745 billion initially. Between June 1935 and June 1936, 80% of the bonds issued had been redeemed. The Treasury paid more than $800 million in cash in the last 2 weeks of 1936 and almost $700 million more in the next year. The cash payments constituted an efficient economic stimulus, since the program required little government administration, the monies were likely to be spent without delay, and the entire process did not require the long lead time of a public works program.[5]
What did the Vietnam war do to the economy?
The answer is that war is always an economic stimulus to the victor, but of course this is not always so. Great Britain was destroyed by WW2; only slightly less than was Germany. However, in this case, the Vietnam War was "good for business" for the US. There was no destruction on American soil, and business was booming for the Military-Industrial complex. "Beware the Military-Industrial Complex!" warned Eisenhower, on leaving the office of the US Presidency. He saw the beginning of the arms buildup of the "Cold War", and feared that the Pentagon, in league with its miltary industry, would warp American policy for generations to come. And of course, it has. However, it was not a closed system. There were other forces at play. In this case, the Oil States of the Middle East. In 1967, Eqypt and Syria attacked Israel, and were beaten back. In 1973, fearing an attack was imminent, Israel preemptively attacked a number of Gulf States. At the time, Israel was getting its arms from the US, while the Arab states were being supplied by the USSR. The US supported their Cold War proxy, Israel, and in retaliation, the Arab states cut off all oil to the West. This made short work of the effort in Southeast Asia. The US military fell apart. While the Arab states, who were no fans of Communism, eventually relented, the damage was done; the price of oil was now far too high to continue the war effort. Probably the most important thing to take away from this is that before the Oil Embargo, there was no expectation that the war would end anytime soon; The Pentagon was happy with the war and so was the Dow Jones Industrial; who cared if dirty unwashed hippies and the Democratic Party were against it? This was the first time that the US learned a painful lesson that we still are struggling with: Economy in the twenty-first century equals Oil.
