Nkhani Yoyambira:
Ena amanena kuti ndalama zomwe zimagwiritsidwa ntchito pankhondo ndi njira yopezera ntchito. Izi zitha kumveka ngati sociopathic. Ilinso a cholakwika chenicheni. Kugwiritsa ntchito usilikali kumathetsadi ntchito, chifukwa ntchito zambiri - ndi ntchito zolipira bwino - zitha kupezeka powononga mafakitale ena kapena kusapereka msonkho ndi kuwononga ndalamazo.
Nkhondo ili ndi ndalama zambiri. Pafupifupi, dziko limawononga $2 thililiyoni chaka chilichonse pazankhondo, zomwe United States imawononga pafupifupi theka, kapena $1 thililiyoni. Ndalama zomwe US zimagwiritsa ntchito zimawononganso theka la bajeti ya boma la US chaka chilichonse. Ndalama zambiri zapadziko lonse lapansi zimaperekedwa ndi mamembala a NATO ndi mabungwe ena a United States, ngakhale China ili pachiwiri.
Nkhondo ndi chiwawa zimabweretsanso ndalama zokwana madola mabiliyoni ambiri chiwonongeko chaka chilichonse. Mtengo wa woukirayo, wokulirapo, ukhoza kukhala wocheperako poyerekeza ndi wamtundu womwe wawukira. Mwachitsanzo, gulu la Iraq ndi zomangamanga zinali anawononga ndi nkhondo yotsogozedwa ndi US, komanso kuwonongeka kwakukulu kwa chilengedwe, vuto la othawa kwawo, ndi ziwawa zomwe zidapitilira nkhondoyo. Ndalama zachuma za nyumba zonse ndi mabungwe ndi nyumba ndi masukulu ndi zipatala ndi machitidwe amphamvu omwe anawonongedwa pa nkhondo monga nkhondo ya 2003 yomwe inayamba ku Iraq ndi yosawerengeka.
Nkhondo zingawononge ngakhale dziko laukali limene limamenya nkhondo kutali ndi magombe ake kuŵirikiza kaŵiri m’ndalama zachindunji kuposa ndalama zachindunji. Akatswiri azachuma amawerengera ndalama zankhondo zaku US ku Iraq ndi Afghanistan, osati $ 2 thililiyoni yomwe boma la US limagwiritsa ntchito, koma ndalama zonse. $ 6 zankhaninkhani, pamene ndalama zosalunjika zimaganiziridwa, kuphatikizapo chisamaliro chamtsogolo cha omenyera nkhondo, chiwongoladzanja pa ngongole, zotsatira za mtengo wamafuta, mwayi wotayika, ndi zina zotero.
Kuwononga ndalama zankhondo kumapatutsa ndalama za boma kukhala mafakitale omwe akuchulukirachulukira kudzera m'mabizinesi aboma osayankha bwino komanso omwe amakhala ndi phindu lalikulu kwa eni ndi oyang'anira mabungwe omwe akukhudzidwa. Zotsatira zake, kuwononga ndalama pankhondo kumagwira ntchito yoyika chuma m'manja ochepa, pomwe gawo lina lingagwiritsidwe ntchito kuipitsa boma ndikuwonjezera kapena kusunga ndalama zankhondo.
Ndikoyenera kulingalira zina mwa zomwe zatayika chifukwa cha zosankha zamakono. Zingawononge ndalama zokwana madola 30 biliyoni pachaka kuti athetse njala padziko lapansi. Zingawononge ndalama zokwana madola 11 biliyoni pachaka kuti dziko lonse likhale ndi madzi abwino. Pafupifupi $70 biliyoni pachaka angathetse umphawi ku United States: Christian Sorensen akulemba Kumvetsetsa Nkhondo Yankhondo, "Bungwe la US Census Bureau likuwonetsa kuti mabanja 5.7 miliyoni osauka kwambiri omwe ali ndi ana angafunike, pafupifupi $ 11,400 yochulukirapo kuti athane ndi umphawi (kuyambira 2016). Ndalama zonse zofunika . . . zikanakhala pafupifupi $69.4 biliyoni/chaka.” Ndalamazi ndi kagawo kakang'ono ka ndalama zomwe zimagwiritsidwa ntchito pankhondo.
Mayiko angachulukitse thandizo lawo lakunja mochulukirachulukira mwa kusinthanitsa ndalama zochepa zomwe amawononga pankhondo, ndipo kutero kungapangitse kuti akhale otetezeka kuposa momwe amawonongera usilikali.
