>>13057996If you consider the world's total GDP at a fixed point in time, then going to war to increase your GDP in favor of someone else's can yield a net gain.However, all modern economic theory (as well as classical) points out that great prosperity is achieved through free trade and decreased regulation, what the french call laissez-faire.Now, there is a point to be made about economic desirability vs social desirability, but the reality still remains, that war is the least efficient and most wasteful way to increase economic welfare.
