The United States and the Soviet Union were in the middle of a Cold War. To have their enemies rockets so close to home is devastating.
The missiles on Cuba meant that the US was of the striking range and the threat of nuclear war increased exponentially. The Soviets could use those rockets to attack the US and they could not have time to react. Defending against that kind of force, so close to the border would be a nightmare and would certainly lead to great loss of life.
I could be wrong, but it could be all of the above. The US was pumping billions of dollars into war-torn countries to recover economically to be able to trade goods, like how they pumped money into Japan and it recovered almost instantly and began to trade goods with the US that continue to this day. Don't forget that the world powers after the war created the UN to promote international peace, alongside other things. Although trying to maintain peace, the Soviet Union is closing itself off from the Western world by infiltrating neighboring countries and overthrowing their government and installing a Soviet communist-style government. Winston Churchill is fearful of this and gives a speech about it in Fulton, Missouri in which he says that Stalin has put up and iron curtain. In response to this, the US enacts a containment policy, to stop the spread of communism.
