In the mid-1800s, the country was divided into 3 sections: North, South, and West. The North's economy was dominated by manufacturing and industry. The South's economy was primarily agriculture with a heavy focus on growing cash crops like cotton, tobacco, rice, and indigo. The West's economy was a mixture of manufacturing and agriculture. The different economies would drive wedges between the different sections and result in different societies and values.
I think that the 'by-products' of the Space Race are what really benefit us. The Race itself is pretty irrevelant. It forced both nations to push their technology to its limits and as a result of the huge government expenditures, we now have better technology to use in everyday life. Things like LCD screens, computers and energy saving and water filtration technology are all aspects of space research which is relevant to us.
