The US after WW2 was richer than before it, and the destruction of competitors allowed for a huge boom. I am surprised you have never heard the refrain of "war is good for the economy". I hear it all the time, and this comes from our WW2 experience.
How else can you be educated to the horrors of war? given fieldtrips? As I said, in 50 years Europe will be less war averse, as the memory of the last huge war fades away.
I believ this to be a very correct generalization.
