“We will stаy [in Vietnаm] becаuse a just natiоn cannоt leave tо the cruelties of its enemies a people who have staked their lives and independence on America's solemn pledge -- a pledge which has grown through the commitments of three American Presidents.” “We will stay because in Asia and around the world are countries whose independence rests, in large measure, on confidence in America's word and in America's protection. To yield to force in Vietnam would weaken that confidence, would undermine the independence of many lands, and would whet the appetite of aggression.

Our policy is directed not against any country or doctrine but against hunger, poverty, desperation, and chaos. Its purpose should be the revival of working economy in the world so as to permit the emergence of political and social conditions in which free institutions can exist." George C. Marshall, remarks made at Harvard University on June 5, 1947 Which of the following provides the best rationale for the economic focus of the policy being supported in the above speech?
