A very large chunk of all funds spent on war ends up in the pockets of other countries. While working for ATK, who deals a lot with the ammunition side of the government, there was a large isuue in a slowing spending on US based companies by our own government. Even companies like Haliburten (sp?) opened and maximized overseas operations to get more into the mix of goverment funds. Largely due to the cheap transport and labor with the end product already being across the ocean.

Yup, Halliburton is now headquartered in Dubai.
