Ww2 did NOT propel the economy forward. Ww2 took away productivity invested to build society and used it to create products designed to be destroyed. Ww2 was as close as Keines had to prove his theory.
The end of the was what triggered the economy forward. During the war, people could not buy stuff due to rationing. Once rationing was removed, the money they saved got put into the market, creating demand and growth capital that would have been put into the market earlier, had we not needed to go to war.

The first link says it will not have all the information yet.
The second makes my choose one scenario, and is not in chart form, so I cannot readily see anything like trends and comparisons. Very unlike private insurance.
I didn’t bother with the third.
LIke I said, is there any place I can go to for information in usable form?
