Best Answer

Black markets of World War 2 grew out of necessity in both the United States and the United Kingdom (and other countries) in response to the shortages and inability to buy enough with the ration cards/stamps. They were basically innocuous and did help families survive. The governments of both countries did little to clamp down on the black market.

The Black Market was where people in WW2 went to get foods that were un-purchasable or get extra rationed foods. This source of buying was illegal of course! so was stuff to do with it.

The black market is a underground circuit where items are sold and bought. The act in itself is illegal because of stolen goods and tax evasion.
