Wars are expensive. Sometimes they return their invesment, sometimes not. WWII, yes. Korea, yes. Vietnam? Prolly not. Iraq? Afgahnistan? Too soon to know.

Redistribution of wealth does not have a ROI. Yes, the boat comes up for all, but for all the wrong reasons. You still end up with a bunch of people who have NO incentive to improve their lot in life. Over time, they beging to expect everything to be given to them.

Time was, a government hand out was a shaming thing. No longer true.
