why didnt the market go down in wwii?

 

Sadly, War makes the world go 'round.

That's why we don't ever "win" those pretend wars in the oil and poppy fields of the middle east.

It would kill our business model and the lobbyists couldn't influence our elected "representatives".

Follow the money.

 

As our President warned : "Beware of the military Industrial complex.

In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist."
"We have been compelled to create a permanent armaments industry of vast proportions."

PS: I do some work for a local military electronics sub-contractor. I charge them 4 times my normal price. They apparently have a budget that requires they always spend more than last year or they get cut back.
