Rationing was primarily seen as a necessary measure during times of war or crisis, particularly during World War II, when governments like those of the United States and the United Kingdom implemented it to ensure fair distribution of scarce resources and to support the war effort. Economists and policymakers believed that rationing would prevent hoarding, ensure that essential goods reached those who needed them most, and maintain social stability. Many citizens initially accepted rationing as a patriotic duty, viewing it as a collective effort to support the troops and the nation.
