概要
In this episode of Nights On The Porch, we read Chapters 1 through 3 of War Is a Racket by Smedley Butler (1935). Butler lays out his argument that war, especially WWI, has served as a highly profitable enterprise, benefiting specific industries, corporations, and financial interests.
Focusing on the who, what, when, and where of wartime profits, Butler breaks down how a war economy operates and identifies the groups that stand to gain the most. This episode explores his early claims, the examples he presents, and the broader questions he raises about the relationship between conflict, business, and national policy.
The goal is to introduce listeners to Butler’s argument and encourage deeper reading, research, and discussion about the economic forces behind war.
