clear our fog of ignorance? It is my specialty! The guy takes a few headlines displayed in the CNN screen and think that is what is going on. That is the fog of ignorance you allude to. What is really going on: You sell weapons. You need markets for them. You go to conflict zones. Weapons exports top countries. Weapons imports top countries Weapons top manufacturers and the countries. Look to the total employment column. . Note US >800.000 are directly employed in weapons manufacturers Industry experts highlighted that approximately 800,000 defense jobs, intelligence jobs and other occupations are tied to the defense industry. In addition, more than 10 percent of U.S. manufacturing demand in the U.S. is dependant on aerospace and defense spending with contractors including Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Northrop Grumman and General Dynamics. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, wage and salary employment in the federal government is expected to increase by 10 percent through 2018 and demand is projected to be particularly strong for workers with skills in specialized areas that require security clearance, including financial services, scientific research and information security. Job growth is also expected in employment through defense contractors as long as government spending remains consistent.
