We sold them to the allies while they were being bombarded and exterminated one soul at a time. We didn't build tanks and airplanes and guns for the allies out of the kindness of our hearts. Second, let us not forget that America was the ONLY country in the world that made a profit from the war. While Hawai'i did suffer some damage, it was mainly to our military infrastructure, not the city itself. So, unlike England, France, Germany, Russia, Italy, Spain, Japan and most of the northern nations of Africa, we did not have to spend much money rebuilding. None of our buildings collapsed from bombings nor did we suffer from a shortage of citizens like Germany, who lost millions of lives and as a result did not have the manpower to rebuild as quickly as they would have liked. First, unlike our allies, even the Axis powers, America's infrastructure remained relatively unscathed. While the atomic bomb certainly put us on the map as a nation that no one should mess with, it was more of a deterrent against anyone who was ever thinking of invading or attacking any more of our military outposts as Japan once dared do on December 7, 1941. There are several reasons why the US emerged as it did. Anyone very good at u.s history can help me out?
