There are some holes in your OP title though.......

* The wealthy currently pay some of the lowest tax rates ever so as usual, the poor and middle classes pay for all wars.

* They also suffer minimal personal losses since even when there's a draft, they always manage to shield their sons and daughters from service and harm.

But yes, they would reap most all the benefits of any war.......
