No we are just comparing values. The value of the American weapons is significantly higher than the value of the infrastructure they destroyed by orders of magnitude. So from a money perspective American wars were a net positive.

Which is why I hate the original article. Money is not the reason why waging war is bad.

It’s the loss of human lives and well being. And that does not have a dollar value. The price of the life of my kid is infinite.
