War! What is it good for? It’s good for business! – Billy Bragg (“North Sea Bubble”)
Ferengi rules of acquisition:
- War is good for business
- Peace is good for business.
Only the end of capitalism through socialism will war ever not be the primary focus of the ruling class.
https://www.cfr.org/article/how-much-aid-has-us-sent-ukraine-here-are-six-charts This article is pretty good at showing the OBSCENE amount of US Aid given to Ukraine. It EASILY surpasses the money we gave to Taiwan, Pakistan and Latin America during the 60s. We’ve given more money to Ukraine in 2 years than the entire state of Virginia’s annual budget. 61% of the US Aid is directly related to military training, weapons and building bases. Great info in this article I highly recommend it.
