Best Answer

President Truman adopted a foreign policy called containment- It was a policy directed at blocking Soviet influences and stopping the expansion of communism.

Added: The Marshall Plan was a program aimed at assisting our Allies and the conquered nations to rebuild their economies and the living standards of their civilian populations after WWII.

Although in reality basically a MASSIVE aid plan, at the same time, it had the effect of also helping this country by keeping industry and agriculture functioning at top capacity in order to do so and, therefore, was able to absorb the massive numbers of young former military members coming back home who would all have been in need of jobs.
