i see next provision of work for employees of the arm industry incoming anytime soon. bombing iran will need a lot of bombs. many bombs -> many jobs.

but what am i saying, we should be happy about a safer world as result. only 15897 more wars and we will live on a safe planet.


What I find funny is that, during one of the Clinton-Bush-Perot debates, Bush Sr. mentioned that "we'd need to find a place for those working in the military industry now that the cold war is over". It seems like that place remained in the same industry, building stuff for a policy of infinite warfare.

EDIT: Re-reading your post... I do hope you are not saying that war is good for the economy... that is one of the biggest (and most frequently disproved) ones out there.
