While researching a history paper, you see a graph that shows federal spending on defense in the past 200 years. You notice that federal spending throughout the late 1900s shows much more spending on defense than in previous decades. What development most likely caused this sustained increase in US peacetime defense spending?



Answer :

My guess on this question would be : Cold War .During Cold War USSR and USA were investing huge money in defenses and military technology to show each other they are powerful. Though its called Cold 'War' there was no war. There were no fighting. Just show.
