I think you're right that the U.S. wanted to prevent the spread of communism, and and also that others were afraid of the amount of money this project would need. I also think many people were hoping that this would create European markets in the future. Some objectors feared not only the expense, but also that this would take the US farther from its policy of isolationism.
