In the United States, there were few real shortages of food, tobacco and liquor. However, the Armed Forces did come first as was proper. In those days, Americans wanted their country to be victorious over the Germans and the Japanese. However, the biggest reason for rationing in the United States was to make everyone WAR CONSCIOUS. Rationing was the Roosevelt Adminsitration's way of bringing the war home to everyone and to make our people feel that they were contributing to the VICTORY, which we actually won over out enemies in 1945.
