I've heard similar takes from those drooling boomers also. Think about all the jobs making missiles for war create! Not as many as you'd think old boomer guy.
the MiC is no joke the only properly funded welfare program in the country. it's just welfare for consultants and PMC instead of like you know, people who need the money.
It's the same as the housing market or 401ks. Tie someone's future to the institutions of capitalism and they'll fall in line rapidly. Swap out capitalism for naked imperialism and you have the MIC jobs program.
