The goals of the United States and Russia in the Cold War were the same: increase their own power gaining political, economic and military allies.

But both countries were one on each side of the spectrum. Russia had a sphere of influence in Eastern Europe and defended communism as an economic system while the US defended capitalism and liberalism as an economic system.

The United States main goal once the Cold War was installed was to isolate the Soviet Union as much as they could, using all artifacts they could. The US wanted to prevent the SU from spreading communism, this way the US encouraged democracy and open markets around the world.

On the other side, the Soviet Union wanted to spread their ideas of centrally planned economy and communism, the repulse for capitalism.

This led also to the space run, with both US and SU “fighting” to show and gain power in the space.

Six years after the end of World War I Congress enacted a bill that would reward veterans of the conflict a cash bonus for their

In virtue of the World War Adjusted Compensation Act, U.S. World War I veterans were granted certificates, or bonuses, for their service in the Armed Forces during the Great War to be redeemed in 1945. Due to the onset of the Depression, in 1932, a large group of veterans out of jobs and desperate to get some money to support their families, marched to Washington D.C. where they camped in order to request the government to honor the bonuses well ahead of their redemption date. The government refused and had U.S. Army units remove the demonstrators by the force of arms, including six tanks, resulting in two World War I veterans killed and over a thousand injured. Four years later the Congress ordered the payment of the certificates nine years before their redemption date.
