I see your points. But war is profitable. Just look at Germany after the Nazis started WWII. During the war the economy was very strong. Same goes for America, Japan, and England. But other than food for thought, the idea might make some good RPs on here.

Other than what Magic said, the boom of a war is followed by a bust. As soon as a country doesn't need to pump out billions in equipment, the jobs are gone and don't forget most countries had to repay war bonds and go back to a peace time economy where there weren't enough jobs. In the US, for instance, there was a very real fear of the country sliding back into a depression. Japan and Germany ended up receiving massive amounts in aid because nobody wanted them to go back to conditions that would breed divtators and fear of Soviet influence.
