During world war ii, what was the most common way of solving labor shortage problems in u. s. industry? a) women were employed in many of those jobs. b) the government raised the immigration quotas. c) politicians began to reform many welfare programs. d) the government mostly used forced labor (slavery).

The first answer would be the correct one (Choice A.) Since most men signed up to fight in the war and there wasn’t much men to work in the factories owners had to resort to women to work in the factories so there. This is where the “We can do it” poster with a picture of Rosie the riveter came from. (If you’ve ever seen it you would understand what I’m talking about.) But I hope this helps you with your question.
