WWII was started by Hitler to end the Depression and we all pitched in. Since the US got most of the manufacturing jobs and none of the bombings it was a win-win for us. GM, Boeing, Ford et all made lots of money. Plenty of money was made in this war too but, unfortunately we were not building enough hardware here to invigorate our economy. Some day, I suppose, economic historians will figure out who was making all of that money we spent but I bert they were rich before and just got a lot richer ... but isn't that always the way. Some of that still "trickles down" I suppose one reason they don't want to stop the war is that trillion dollar economic engine would stop and a lot of people would be out of work. In between wars, we sell hardware to our enemies, like the Saudis. It keeps the manufacturing lines staffed and operating until we need them in the next war. I assume you're being saracastic or stupid, since there is NEVER a good reason to sell weapons to our enemies. Every country that is not named the United States of America is our enemy. Nations have no friends just agreements of convenience. Idiot 3. There is NEVER a good reason to sell weapons to our enemies. Idiot 2, grow up and open your eyes. Already done. Business should NEVER be favored over security. No debate is possible. Ok, you win. |
