In Europe it was going to be very common to lose your job, lose your home, or even begin to starve to death. This began to scare people which is just what they want to do so that people will feel bad and jump in to help. In the North American Treaty it is said that armed forces will be used if it is completely necessary. If we feel threatened or as if there is no other reasonable choice we will return the harmful threats right back to the U.S.S.R and try to make our point see more stiff and threatening to show them that we mean business. This is only one of the many strategies used to rebel in the Cold War.
