Postwar America 1950's

1.) What was the U.S. economy like during WWII? How were Americans doing?

     - During the WWII, Americans were prospering because of new technologies that were invented. New industries boomed, making new jobs available for the Americans.

2.) How did the American economy transform after The Great Depression and WWII?

     - Americans no longer held blue collar jobs or factory jobs. People improved to white collar jobs - managerial, office and professional occupation, which are higher paid positions.

3.) Why would a company like Google not do well in the 50's?
     - Because people in the 1950's were taught not to be creative thinkers and rebels, while Google consists of creative people who were rebels.
