As if!!! Kid I was anti war before you were even born.
No one dies for profit. You can't take any money with you. Those 18-25 year old kids who died at Normandy and the kids who are now dying in Iraq are not doing it to get rich. They re doing it for their troopmates, their family, their beliefs. none of them "profitable". Soldiers don't get mansions.
You are confusing the government with the soldiers. Don't.
PEOPLE die in wars. Governments wage them. I'm grateful to the PEOPLE who gave their lives so we wouldn't be Nazi right now on the IV Reich. The governments ? Those SOBs as soon would sell us all as "red meat" to a burger factory if there was profit to be had...
