Best Answer

The second world war is known as the good war because of its great social and economic benefits to America.

  • America's economy was still recovering from the Wall Street Crash at the outbreak of the war. Therefore the ability to sell weapons and then become involved themselves, enabled America to employ millions of workers.
  • The number of employed women rose from fourteen million to twenty million.
  • The size of the armed forces rose from half a million to twelve million.
  • African Americans were often better treated in Europe than they were in America.
  • Many African America's moved to the Northern States because of the jobs evadable in industry due to the war.
