Peace dividend limits from end of Vietnam war
New York based economist Michael E Levy estimates ending the Vietnam War could free up to 16 billion dollars annually in fiscal 1969 dollars for civilian use, but most would still be absorbed by postwar defense and Saigon commitments. He notes a ratchet effect and predicts limited peacetime gains for health, welfare, and construction sectors while defense and related industries face shifts.
