bloody money

People spend more money on weapons for wars than on education, health, or
any other actual things we need.
If you needed a kidney transplant it would kind of suck if they said, "Sorry we can not afford to do the transplant at this hospital because the money we needed to do so just bought billy in Iraq a new rifle."
well yes and no. a big chunk of our economy is through the production of war materials. for example you want to buy a gun you pay money to a person to create that gun and in this exchange you just created a job, now to go even further to create this gun the person has to buy materials to make this gun and through buying these materials he has just created several jobs and to get the materials to someone has to gather these materials so even more jobs are created. I may sound cruel but the production of war materials is good for the economy. now it is true we spend too much on war materials where we should focus on education. i not advocating war, i hate war because war is always a useless thing. I'm just saying the production of war materials is good for the economy.
