More obvious than the primitive carnage of war is as rich-joy says 'it makes money' for some people. War is a racket. War claims its for protection. There are many bottom lines but I am ill-equipped to know exactly who profits. Some of the war corporations of WW2 like Krup, Mitsubishi, GM and many others are still around as if they are immortal. You and I are not. In my neck of the woods, Virginia is said to have more of the death-motivated companies. Maryland has more of the life-giving/sustaining businesses.
