Places that don't have wars do much better than those who do

False statement.
The US is the greatest economy on earth. As a matter of fact is the US economy fails or crashes it effects most every other country's economics as well. Even China is dependent on trade with the US for it's well being.

A few years ago when New Zealand went broke from to much Socialism the rest of the world hardly noticed as was the case in Czechoslovakia , Greece, the present drop in Russia , how bout Venezuela or the sanctions on Iran and N/Korea.
Who is the Policeman on the world stage ? Who is involved in most conflicts ? The USA no matter what party is in power Republicans or Democrats.

The US is also the biggest arms exporter / seller on earth. Arm sales is over 10% of GDP
Then there is Defense worth $800B yearly Protecting not only for the US. The US is the defending power of NATO, SEATO and CENTO , defending other countries including N/Z
If you scroll down and look at Relations with New Zealand you will see N/Z also participated in Afghanistan with the US. So in fact NZ is involved in fighting in wars like anyone else.
Wars in keeping World Order are similar to firing a sh!t disturbing employee in a group of workers. Stop the agitator before they get out of hand.
