Every year, the Federal Reserve conducts a massive survey of American households to paint a portrait of their economic habits and spirits. The recently published findings for 2017 are worth examining for what they say about who should — and shouldn't — get credit for the resilient U.S. economy.

World War I was a conflict that created a huge impact on the 'idea' of what a war could be at the time. Populations across the globe had never seen or imagined a war as devastating as WWI at the time.
It was the 'War to end all wars'.
At the time the main tasks that describe that home front during this war, were the following:

- Purchase war bonds from the government.
- Work in a wartime industry
- Volunteer with organizations like the Red Cross
- Save sugar for the soldiers
- Grow crops

> Americans purchased Liberty Bonds to finance the war effort.<em> (However, these where just called 'war bonds'.</em>
