When the war began, the U.S. economy was in recession. But a 44-month economic boom ensued from 1914 to 1918, first as Europeans began purchasing U.S. goods for the war and later as the United States itself joined the battle.
The economy had rebounded during World War 2. The country now had to train, educate and employ 2 million men and 300,000 women returning from the war. Many of the service people married after the war. They needed jobs, homes and cars. The US created the GI bill to benefit the soldiers with medical care, ability to go to college and buy homes.
