Unlike the United States’ publicly documented military aid to Ukraine, it was impossible to get the full details of what the U.S. has shipped Israel since last Oct. 7, so the $17.9 billion for the year is a partial figure, the researchers said.

          A much better argument is one of labor and resource allocation. A country has only so much productive capacity, and people being employed by the military industry are not doing socially useful work.

            Yes. If everyone’s labor is allocated to killing people, that leaves no labor leftt to cure people.
