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.

I think that eventhough, Federal Government has too much power and is it wanted it could change the life of their citizens from one day to another, it also gives to the states to act with freedom and decide how to live in society in their terrotories with their own laws. This a positive feature of the Federal Government, allowing the states to act with certain freedom and ruling their territories by them selves.
In my opinion there are not good or bad powers, but there good or bad people so it does not depend on the powers, it dependes on the people that has them and how they use it. For example the Federal Government gives the states to choose if the marijuana is legal or not in their territories and nowadays sevral states legalized it and others do not. In this case for example it dependes on the control that the State Government does over this matter and that pople respect the rules of how to use it and consume it. This matter is really important and affects the economy of the United States, but if the Federal and the State Government cooperate to control and give this industry a conscious and responsible use, this is a good choice that both authorities are making.
I think that Adam Smith would be more supportive of globalization of multinational corporations since his major work, the Wealth of Nations dealt with the workings of the capitalist system and supported it. I think that Karl Marx would be strongly opposed to the control that the multi-nationals have over their neo-colonies but at the same time would applaud the way that globalization has developed solidarity between the working class of the different countries such as between the major capitalist countries and the so-called Third World countries.
