60 用拉尔夫·爱泼斯坦的话来说,“人们有时说汽车造就了良好的道路,有时又说良好的道路建设促进了汽车业的巨大发展,这两种说法其实都是对的。和经济问题一样,因果关系不断交互产生作用”。(1928, The Automobile Industry [Chicago: Shaw], 17)

70 有一种观点认为,第二次世界大战期间的军事研究和发展带来了巨大的积极影响,在随后的几十年里推动着美国的生产率发展。这一观点仍存在争议,与技术进步指标提供的证据不符。直到20世纪50年代末,介绍新技术的书籍数量才开始超过1941年的水平。(M. Alexopoulos and J. Cohen, 2011, “Volumes of Evidence: Examining Technical Change in the Last Century through a New Lens,” Canadian Journal of Economics/Revue Canadienne d’économique44 [2]: 413-50.)1941年12月珍珠港遇袭,军事建设开始受到更多关注,更多生产资源被分配给美国的战争机器,创新也就随之放缓了。
