One cannot quibble about the immense profits to be made from war, if you're properly positioned. I find it curious that both the Bush and the Cheney families are so positioned.

I'd feel a lot more comfortable with a commander in chief and a second in command, that have no chance of personal gain from ordering the troops to battle.

Wishful thinking on my part, I guess. Then only the important things are left to ponder, like the lives of the troops and the pursuit of peace in the world.

I don't like conflicts of interest rearing their heads in these situations.
