American president Dwight D. Eisenhower warned us against the military industrial complex decades ago. https://youtu.be/Gg-jvHynP9Y?si=kBZDjH8hq9V3wWov
In your opinion, has America avoided the threat of which Eisenhower warned? If you believe it has I suggest you read "War is a Racket" by Smedley Butler, one of the most decorated marines in history and a patriot who thwarted an attempted coup against the government of the United States of America.
