Fact. The USA was an economic juggernaught after the war because it's cities and industries were never damaged. The political instability wrought by world war meant many nations came to depend on the USA for it's economic and military protection from the new enemy Soviet communism. All of these factors lead to the rise of american world power.

Fact, in a big way. At the end of WW2 we had done the following:
(1) Built the mightiest military machine in the world (and have kept it at that No. 1 level since)
(2) Expanded our territorial control to many parts of the world, maintaining either direct control or heavy influence over many areas that we did not before.
(3) Built much political capital by helping--again--many European countries from suffering permanent defeat and occupation.
(4) All of the above established a background for the rapid growth of our economy, and significantly contributed to the accumulation of wealth in the USA, by government and corporate entities, as well as by individuals.

WW2 made the US an industrial might, the largest producer of durable goods on the planet. The prosperity of this time stretched for decades. It was played out by late 70s and early 80s by the start of outsourcing. China, Korea, India, etc started being able to compete with us technologically, once American investors/pirates sent our machinery (and dollars) there and trained them to use it, after firing all their American workers back home in the states. Greed ended the US's reign as industrial giant and provider for the planet.
