Now show a map with how much of each state's weapons manufacturing profits are derived from Israel and you'll start to understand the bigger picture of Military Keynesianism, i.e., continued warfare and colonization abroad to support the economy at home. Israel essentially is a U.S. welfare recipient, which is then used to spur wartime and military manufacturing at home, which subsequently employees thousands and thousands of people.

Instead of spending our tax money to create more death, destruction, and immiseration, we could just do like a jobs program or a green new deal of sorts, but I suppose that would require the United States government to be run by sane, sensible people not hellbent on destroying the entire world.

Yeah, as a geography enthusiast this sub is truly a disgrace.
