What are the main directions of domestic policy in the United States during the Cold War?

The Cold War period spanned from the end of World War II to the very moment of the collapse of the USSR. At this time, the United States tried with all its might to contain the constantly growing influence of communism on its territory, as well as in other countries, with the help of various secret services and bodies.

In addition, the United States introduced a tax on petroleum products, which was associated with an increase in gasoline consumption. There was an expansion of the military industrial complex, including an increase in the number of military personnel.
