The Military Industrial Complex Is a Good Thing.

—“What’s wrong with the military industrial complex?”—Steve Pender (rhetorical question)

Nothing. At it’s very worst it is: (a) the optimum research and development investment, and (b) the optimum means of economic redistribution, (c) the optimum means of producing male investment in the social order, (d) the optimum means of producing male prosociality.

(Besides we replaced it with the Cathedral complex and that’s the worst possible of each.)
