The US wanted to block communism for sure but we aren't organized enough to do subtle things in Europe. We didn't "let you" choose social safety nets over military spending, I say that in part because I've been hearing about insufficient euro military spending for many years. We must have advocated for block commies and military spending. ;-) The US must have tried to suppress communist parties in Italy etc after ww2, probably did terrible things.
