D

Explanation:

A The space race might have been costly, but to call it harmful for the American economy is an exageration. Especially if you compare it with the military weapons race both countries maintained.

B You can generate jobs but you can't generate salaries.

C The military weapons race proved to be too much for the Sovjet Union; the U. S. seemed to handle both races without too much problems.
