Reply #6: War Is Our Major Export... [View All]

[KharmaTrain]

The one legacy of World War II that remains. We became the "Aresnal of Democracy" and soon found it was a very profitable business and export. While American goods have troubles competiting with the stuff from China or India, our planes, guns and "expertise" is big money. It's a reason this country has an itchy trigger finger as peace means the MIC is limited to selling to its biggest customer...the American Tax payer. In the 90s we developed all these expensive weapon systems and stockpiled weapons...the Gulf Wars for profit took care of that problem.

In a "consumer society" all that matters is consumption...and those who don't consume are expendable. That will be the sad legacy of our lifetimes.

Cheers...
