China was a wild card during the Cold War. They fought the United States in the Korean War when they thought MacArthur might invade China; it had nothing to do with them being 'communist'. While many in the US Congress thought China automatically supported the USSR, that was incorrect. The Chinese wanted to be recognized by the US, and only supported the Soviets as a way of forcing the US to recognize them. After Nixon went to China, the Chinese took a pro-capitalist stance that made them the economic powerhouse they are today.

The communists won by having more determination. Their effect on the US domestic front simply meant an added communist power to contain, during the cold war.
spell out meaning of 'MC'
During WWII and Vietnam. Yes, during WWII and the Vietnam War, but to be more general, the military draft is used whenever the U.S. does not have enough voluntary recruits (meaning, when there are not enough volunteers). So, it could be argued that the military draft is used to "force" people into the army to defend their country. It has not been employed since the early 1970's.
The domino Effect is a phenomenon where a chain of consequences is created by a single event. As in a line of dominos, where 1 domino is struck, others fall as a consequence of the original action. As it pertains to the Vietnam war, the domino effect was the theory that the US government used to justify its intervention in Vietnam. The position of the pro-war, anti-communist advisers in the government was that if Vietnam was allowed to "fall" to communism, this would set off a 'domino effect' whereby first neighboring countries such as Laos, Cambodia and Thailand would fall into communist revolution, and by extension countries further afield would be overtaken as the global communist revolutionary movement gained momentum. According to this line of thinking, to stop communism in Vietnam was to stop the world from falling into communist control. This theory is disproved, as we know Communist North Vietnam defeated US forces, but this did not result in a domino effect of neighboring countries becoming communist.
The military draft emptied factories of male workers. -----> More women went to work to support the war effort.
