And it won't work. Military Keynesianism is the worst kind of Keynesianism. If you build a bridge or a university or a rail line you get an asset with real use value for real people that will help develop your economy further. If you build a tank you have a tank and the best case scenario when it comes to its use value is that it will never be used. The collective West is currently wasting enormous resources on a dumbass arms race and we will suffer the consequences for decades to come.
