Forever Wars are a great example of MISALLOCATION OF ASSETS. Really could use a period where the major governments were NOT building huge military arsenals at the expense of massive Debt Increases. What would the US DEBT TO GDP ratio be if we cut our defense procurement and defense sharing to Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan, and Philippines by ten (10) percent annually? I bet we might see a gradual decrease in US and maybe other countries Debt too>but what would that do to our security posture with respect to China and Russia? Just can't cut and open our allies to attack? Or could those other allies pick up some of the spending slack?
