The federal government won the war and appeared to be guiding the nation's economy to smooth and never-ending growth.

What people tend to overlook is that Europe was a wreck after WWII, with the U.S.A. intact. The feds did win the war. But the economy was a wreck and the feds were responsible for that. We supplied the world with goods and rebuilt Europe, essentially a monopoly enjoyed by our economy until Europe and Japan got back on their feet. The feds took credit for the growth, but much of it wasn't due to their policies, just good fortune. Dems got drunk with power and the feds stuck their nose into everything thinking they had "solved" everything. Sigh...
