1) the war secured America’s position as a major global supplier of branded and consumer goods
2) it smoothed out prior inequalities in the domestic workplace, many of which remained intact even after the war ended, including a more meaningful entrance of women in the workplace
3) it paved the way for a post-war boom and expanding middle class.
The study found that living in a war-torn country during World War II was consistently associated with having poorer health later in life. Those respondents who experienced war were 3 percentage points more likely to have diabetes as adults and 5.8 percentage points more likely to have depression.

World War II was the deadliest military conflict in history in terms of total dead, with some 75 million people casualties including military and civilians, or around 3% of the world's population at the time. Many civilians died because of deliberate genocide, massacres, mass-bombings, disease, and starvation.
