A - Cold War. 

Considering that the Cold war lasted for quite some time after the Second World War, it was also very costly in terms of money as it required many scientists and factories working to continuously research different technologies that could defend and protect the United states. It was also done so that the US was armed enough to be able to defend themselves in the case of an attack.

Which statement best describes what high inflation indicates about an economy? The purchasing power of a dollar remains the same
kati45 [8]

Answer: Rising costs in housing, food, and utilities will likely have a negative impact on a family's standard of living.

Explanation:

Inflation is a general rise in prices of goods and services in a country. If a country suffers from high inflation, goods and services will see their prices rise even more.

More often than not, people's wages do not rise as inflation rises or at least not at the same rate. This means that families will be unable to keep buying the goods they were normally able to buy as they can no longer afford it. Switching to inferior goods or neglecting to buy those goods anymore will have a negative impact on the standards of living of the families.
