Why did the u. s government use rationing for some foods and consumer goods during world war 11?

It was due to the great effort that would be needed to use the various resources from rubber to cloth that would end up being used to cloth soldiers as well as things like grease the tank treads while the boys were off to war in the Pacific and Europe.

the big stick policy was to still look powerful, and be nice at the same time. the big stick policy was also to countries who were at war, find peace with eachother.

the dollar diplomacy was to expand american business and get it to latin america, for that would be good for the economy.

you my friend, your regards.
