Government spending significantly increased from the 1930s to the 1940s, primarily due to the economic demands of World War II. In the 1930s, during the Great Depression, government expenditures were focused on relief and recovery programs, such as the New Deal initiatives aimed at stimulating the economy. However, by the 1940s, military spending surged to support the war effort, leading to a dramatic rise in overall government spending as the U.S. ramped up production and mobilization. This transition marked a shift from domestic recovery efforts to large-scale military investment.
During the 1930s and 1940s, Germany was controlled by a totalitarian regime led by the National Socialist German Workers' Party (Nazi Party), under the leadership of Adolf Hitler. This regime, which began its rise to power in 1933, implemented fascist policies, suppressed dissent, and promoted aggressive nationalism and militarism. The government was characterized by state control over many aspects of life, including the economy, media, and education, as well as the systematic persecution of Jews and other minority groups.
In Britain the Beveridge Report in the 1940s was very influential in the Labour post war government of Clement Attlee. It established the 'Welfare State'.
In the 1940s, the United States had a progressive tax system with significantly high marginal tax rates, particularly during World War II. The top income tax rate reached as high as 94% for incomes over $200,000, reflecting the government's need to fund the war effort. This high taxation was aimed at wealthier individuals and corporations, while lower-income earners faced much lower rates. Overall, the tax structure of the 1940s was characterized by substantial government revenue generation to support wartime expenditures.
