We discuss how during World War II, government expenditures constituted around 80% of national income, surpassing private consumption expenditures. Private consumption decreased from 65% to 45%, while investment only accounted for 3% as resources were directed towards military production. This exceptional situation led to public debt reaching its highest levels in history, surpassing 120% of GDP by the end of the war.
