Answer 2

The correct answer is D) Production boosted the economy, which helped lift the US out of the Great Depression.

The US was suffering through the worse economic depression in American history during the 1930's. However, thanks to America's involvement in World War II, the US military needed a significant amount of resources in order to be successful. This demands for goods caused businesses to hire more workers. This helped to decrease unemployment rates and resulted in more people having money within the US. This helped millions of American citizens to recover from the Great Depression.
