Which of the following gave the american economy a major boost in the years after world war ii? the return of thousands of veterans who were seeking jobs the conversion to a peacetime economy a pent-up demand for consumer goods a major drop in government spending

The correct answer is a pent-up demand for consumer goods.

The post-WWII years were a period of great economic growth in the United States. This was due to the industrial expansion that happened during the war and the increase in birth rate (baby-boom), among other factors. Now in peacetime, the industry could focus on producing new commercial goods and the increasing population not only met the offer but enlarged the demand for new industrial goods produced in the market. The demand was stuck during the war as well as the fertility rate, but during the postwar both started to increase leading the country to a new period of great prosperity and wealth.

C. a pent-up demand for consumer goods

- "the past is made of multitudinous items ranging from anything that can be collected, recollected or assessed to originate in the past. as such, the past is a gallimaufry of particulars that may not have been related in any way. however, the human mind seeks organization to understand concepts and other things. the human mind therefore seeks relationships in explaining and studying the past. history being a humanity, dictates that historians have to serve this human trait by bringing structure to details of the past. historians do this by creating interpretive frameworks that capture as many details as possible."
