Amusing bit of post war propaganda! WWII had just ended and the big enemy was communism and it's evil twin socialism! Notice how everyone is white and the bad guy salesman is the only darker looking (foreign) character. Jim Crow laws were still common, lynchings were still going on in the south and the next decade would bring in the McCarthy witch hunts. A great time to be an American!

Yeah, it's much better now with socialism. Drive by shootings, abortion, babies having babies, and the only thing to fear is Rush Limbaugh on your radio. A great time to be an American!
