If the US didn't try to stop communism, there wouldn't have been a Cold War. That's what the Cold War was: a non-shooting war between the communists and the free world. It began with Truman's Marshall Plan at the end of World War II, which was intended to help rebuild European countries' economies and also ensure that they would be capitalist and not communist. The Korean War and the Vietnam War continued the U.S.'s intention of stopping communism on a much larger scale, of course.
