I know every war has other motives. War only benefits a few companies and doesn't help the overall economy at all. A big war like WW2 helps out the overall economy but having a few individual companies making sophisticated weapons (modern warfare) barely benefits a few. The only companies I see benefiting from USA's two most recent wars would be Halliburton, Lockhead Martin, Boeing, and a few others. The oil companies might benefit if we can trick the Iraqi's into privatizing their oil fields. Pretty much the main reason why we went into Iraq. |
exactly so that fact does help as those corporations have a huge part in the political factor of the companies.
during war not only the those companies benefit but all of the country's attention is diverted,so many others also yield benefits.
and what usa does around the world benefits them alot,they pay all these war-torn and poor countries later with monetary benefits.now you would say that is a good thing but all it is doing is creating a globalized economy where they are enslaving these small countries to work for them.
in the short term this will be fine but when a leader stands up from one of these countries then they have had it
