Yes, war is profitable for many and defense contractors need a war every decade or so to keep the gravy train going. Ask Sen. Feinstein, she and her husband make big bucks from war. And who pays the price? Our troops who are used like pawns. I’m not anti-war. I’m anti-stupid war. None of our politicians have the guts to do what needs to be done, so we will keep repeating failed strategies.
Amen to that. What galls me is that we're broke and these guys want to go shopping, all the while pontificating about "thrift."
