The Pentagon Wars are just as relevant today as it was when it was first released as a movie. Same issues and same money no object treatment.

Point is that the Defense Industry is also a welfare state for college-educated engineers and business administrators, the sort of people who could not possibly prosper in our economy otherwise, while also a federal revenue-sharing plan for less skilled workers, providing services especially in infrastructure and job-poor rural areas.
