Answer:
The correct answer to the question: The 1950s era in the United States is described as "the affluent society". What change does this term describe? would be: People became wealthier.
Explanation:
During the period of the 1950´s, the American society experienced a moment of peace, a cease of conflict, and an improvement in income that helped them to increase their wealth, and experience a time of peace and financial stability. This era came in stark contrast to the previous years, when America had been shaken by war, and by a really deep and serious financial crisis. When both war, and this crisis ended, economic and financial welfare arose and this welfare, which came to be around the 1950´s, caused a sense of affluence, as income increased and working conditions also increased in the United States.
