>> At least we GET a return on "entitlements". What do we get for dumbass wars? NOTHING but bills..

The majority of the money "spent" on wars flows into the US economy. This, of course, is no reason to have a war -- but you at least get a boost in productivity out of a war whereas you do not out of entitlements.

I would point out it was WWII that ended the Great Depression.
