What is an industrial complex? Outgoing president of the United States Dwight Eisenhower warned us in his parting words to beware of the massive military spending and the Military Industrial Complex.
There are many industrial complexes today. Any industry where consumer or government spending totals millions or billions of dollars…there is a force to continue or grow that spending. Profit is a strong motivator. So strong that very little in this world can resist it.
Common sense, what is right and human health and even lives are no obstacle.
Military, medical, agriculture, pharmaceutical, banking, insurance, and prisons are just a start of a long list. Even our own government has a tendency to grow and spread. One might even liken it to cancer or a parasite.
I just hope the host survives.
