RE: Cheaper in a lot of different ways..
I agree but the Government doesn't. Every time that a war starts money is made. So for them war is cheaper and it even brings profit. As long as we live in a society ruled by those governments that depend on big company's and central banks we will always have wars because money needs to be made.
Very nice post.
SteemON!
I think that war is actually more expensive for the government. The government spends tax dollars on the military. All of the money that the government spends goes to defense contractors, corporations that supply the military with weapons and other supplies. War doesn't actually generate revenue for the government though. War sucks it out of the government and puts it into the hands of corporations. Now, some government officials work directly with those corporations or have a stake in them, so money does cycle back into the hands of certain government officials. But in general, the government doesn't profit from war.
The Problem is that people pay taxes and fund all the wars. And soldiers are culpable too because they can disobey the Orders of the politicians but they act like robots and kill people. Change starts in the mind
