The problem is profit. If there is a profit incentive to have a war, then there is going to be political lobbying to have wars. Of course, now profits are at all-time highs in the military-industrial complex and it is something that we should be very worried about. Even Eisenhower saw the dangers in this; we really have done very little to prevent profiteering for war. There should be institutional barriers that prevent defense contractors having personal connections that could create profits for those who make decisions about war.
