The main reason for the percentage increase in the United States defense spending in 1950 was <u>A.  the nuclear arms race ...</u>

<h3>What is Defense Spending?</h3>

Defense spending is the total budgeted expenditure for maintaining and equipping the United States armed forces.  It also includes the costs of developing and testing modern weapons for warfare.

<h3>Purpose of Defense Spending</h3>

The increased defense spending in 1950 was to counter the threats posed by communism hoisted on the world by the Soviet Union.

Thus, the increased defense spending in 1950, apart from the nuclear arms race with the Soviet Union, was not meant to:

  • Rebuild Japan's military forces.
  • Increase troops for the Korean War.
  • Finance the United Nations peace-keeping troops.

How labor market changes caused social changes.
tia_tia [17]

Explanation:

Labor markets in capitalist economies are fundamentally tilted against individual workers’ ability to bargain effectively with employers. Policy does not have to be rigged for employers to give them particular clout in labor markets; instead, the very nature of these labor markets gives them clout. In the past, when economic growth was broadly shared across the population, it was because policymakers understood this basic asymmetry and used policy levers to bolster the leverage and bargaining power of workers. Conversely, recent decades’ rise of inequality and anemic wage growth has resulted from a stripping away of these policy bulwarks to workers’ labor market power.
