Answer:

did America pay for ww2?

To a degree that will surprise many, the US funded its World War II effort largely by raising taxes and tapping into Americans' personal savings. ... During the War, Americans purchased approximately $186 billion worth of war bonds, accounting for nearly three quarters of total federal spending from 1941-1945.
