War can be a fabulous piggy bank. It has been that way since the Civil War in the U.S. and in other countries like Great Britain, Sweden, Russia, and China. For certain large corporations* war is really very nice indeed, and furthermore all their employees help maintain the economies where they live and buy things, making armament good for all sorts of people.
