Answer 1

An increase in the costs of production and high operating costs caused a dramatic increase in the American economy as well as an increase in the standard of living. Low interest rates and low down payments on housing resulted in more people buying houses. The belief that the economy was improving was due to the increase in purchases of what were considered luxury goods such as refrigerators and televisions. The increase in men commuting to the city for work from their homes was due to the increase in families moving to the suburbs. The G.I. Bill led to veterans returning from war the ability to attend college or technical school. The Civil Rights movement resulted in women also fighting for equal rights. The rise of the counterculture increased the number of young people rejecting their parents' politics and values. The consolidation of automobile manufacturers into three giants that dominated the industry was due to the increase in population.
