Izindleko eziqondile:
Impi inezindleko ezinkulu zezezimali, iningi lazo ezikusetshenziswa imali ekulungiseleleni impi - noma lokho okucatshangwa njengokusetshenziswa kwempi ejwayelekile, okungewona impi. Kakhulu kakhulu, izwe lichitha u-$ 2 trillion ngonyaka ngonyaka wezempi, lapho i-United States isebenzisa cishe ingxenye, noma i-$ 1 trillion. Lokhu kusetshenziswa kwe-US nakho kulandisa cishe ingxenye yesigungu sikahulumeni wase-USisabelomali njalo ngonyaka futhi isatshalaliswe ngokusebenzisa iminyango nezinhlangano eziningana. Okunye okunye okusetshenziselwa imali emhlabeni wonke ngamalungu e-NATO namanye ama-allies ase-United States, yize iChina iyingxenye yesibili emhlabeni.
Akuyona yonke into eyaziwayo yokusetshenziswa kwempi eyenza ngokunembile iqiniso. Isibonelo, i I-Global Peace Index (I-GPI) ihlanganisa i-United States eduze nokuphela kokuthula kwesilinganiso esenzweni sokusetshenziswa kwempi. Ifeza lokhu ngezingqinamba ezimbili. Okokuqala, i-GPI igxuma iningi lezizwe zomhlaba wonke ekugcineni kokuthula okukhulu kombono kunokuba ubanike ngokulinganayo.
Okwesibili, i-GPI isebenzelana nokusetshenziswa kwempi njengephesenti yomkhiqizo owenziwe ekhaya (GDP) noma ubukhulu bomnotho. Lokhu kusikisela ukuthi izwe elicebile elinompi omkhulu lingaba nokuthula okukhulu kunezwe elihluphekile elinempi encane. Lokhu akuyona nje umbuzo wezemfundo, njengoba amathangi okucabanga eWashington enxusa ukuba asebenzise amaphesenti aphezulu e-GDP empini, njengalokhu umuntu kufanele atshale kakhulu empi lapho kunokwenzeka khona, ngaphandle kokulindela isidingo sokuzivikela.
Ngokungafani ne-GPI, i I-Stockholm International International Research Institute (I-SIPRI) ibhala i-United States njenge-spender ophezulu wezempi emhlabeni, kulinganiswa ngama-dollar asetshenzisiwe. Eqinisweni, ngokusho kwe-SIPRI, i-United States isebenzisa okuningi empini nasekulungiseni impi njengoba iningi lezwe lonke lihlangene. Iqiniso lingase libe lihle kakhulu. I-SIPRI ithi ukusetshenziswa kwezempi zase-US ku-2011 kwakuyizigidi ze-711 billion. U-Chris Hellman we-National Priorities Project uthi i-$ 1,200 billion noma i-$ 1.2 trillion. Umehluko uvela ekufaka imali yokusetshenziswa kwempi etholakala kuyo yonke iminyango kahulumeni, hhayi nje "Ukuzivikela," kodwa futhi nokuphepha kwezwe, i-State, Energy, i-US Agency for International Development, i-Central Intelligence Agency, i-National Security Agency, i-Veterans Administration , inzalo emalimboti empi, njll. Ayikho indlela yokwenza i-apula-apula iqhathanise nezinye izizwe ngaphandle kolwazi olunokwethenjelwa olunembile ekusebenziseni kwempi yonke yesifundazwe, kodwa kuphephile kakhulu ukucabanga ukuthi akekho esinye isizwe esisebenzisa imali I-500 yezigidigidi ngaphezu kokubhaliwe kuyo kumazinga we-SIPRI.
Ngenkathi iNorth Korea ikhiphe cishe iphesenti ephakeme kakhulu yomkhiqizo wayo wangaphakathi emakethe amalungiselelo empi kunase-United States, cishe cishe ichitha ngaphansi kwezingu-1 lokho i-United States echitha.
Izindleko ezingaqondile:
Izimpi zingabiza ngisho nesizwe esihlukumezayo esilwa izimpi kude nogu lwaso kabili kakhulu ezindlekweni ezingaqondile njengezindleko eziqondile. Izazi zezomnotho zibala ukuthi izimpi zase-US e-Iraq nase-Afghanistan zibize, hhayi ama- $ 2 trillion asetshenziswe uhulumeni wase-US, kodwa inani eliphelele $ 6 isigidintathu uma izindleko ezingaqondile zibhekwa, kufaka phakathi ukunakekelwa kwezilwane zangaphambili esikhathini esizayo, inzalo kwisikweletu, umthelela ezindleko zikaphethiloli, amathuba alahlekile, njll. Lokhu akubandakanyi izindleko ezinkulu kakhulu zokwenyuka kwemali eyisisekelo ehambisana nempi, noma izindleko eziqondile lokho kuchitha, noma ukulimala kwemvelo.
Izindleko kumhlukumezi, njengoba zinkulu, zingaba zincane uma ziqhathaniswa nalezo zesizwe ezihlaseliwe. Isibonelo, umphakathi wase-Iraq nezingqalasizinda bezikhona wabhubhisa. Kukhona umonakalo omkhulu wemvelo, inkinga yababaleki, nodlame oluhlala isikhathi eside ngaphandle kwempi. Izindleko zezezimali zazo zonke izakhiwo nezikhungo nezindlu namakhaya nezikole nezibhedlela nezinhlelo zamandla ezonakalisiwe cishe akunakulinganiswa.
Ukuchitha Impi Kuqeda Umnotho:
Kuvamile ukucabanga ukuthi, ngoba abantu abaningi banemisebenzi embonini yempi, ukuchitha empini nokulungiselela impi kuzuzisa umnotho. Empeleni, ukuchitha ama-dollar afanayo ezimboni ezinokuthula, emfundweni, ezingqalasizinda, noma ngisho nasezinhlakeni zentela kubantu abasebenzayo bazokhiqiza imisebenzi eminingi futhi ezimweni eziningi imisebenzi ekhokhela kangcono - ngokulondoloza okwanele ukusiza wonke umuntu ukuba enze ushintsho emsebenzini wokulwa ukuya emsebenzini wokuthula .
Ukwehla kwakamuva ezindaweni ezithile ezisezempi zase-US azange akhiqize ukubikezelwa komonakalo kwezomnotho yizinkampani zezikhali.
Ngakho-ke, esikhathini esifushane, ukusetshenziswa kwezempi kubi kakhulu kunokungenamnotho. Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi kungaba kubi kakhulu. Ukusetshenziswa kwezempi akukhiqizi lutho olusetshenziselwa abantu kepha kuhambisa izimpahla zabantu eziwusizo.
Ukuchitha Impi Kukhulisa Ukungalingani:
Ukusetshenziswa kwezempi kudlulisela izimali zomphakathi ezimbonini eziya ngokuya zenziwa ngokwamabhizinisi amancane omphakathi aphendulayo futhi enenzuzo enkulu kubanikazi nabaqondisi bezinhlangano ezithintekayo. Ngenxa yalokhu, ukusetshenziswa kwempi kusebenza ukugxilisa ingcebo enanini elincane lezandla, lapho ingxenye yayo ingasetshenziselwa ukonakalisa uhulumeni nokuqhubeka nokwengeza noma ukugcina ukusetshenziswa kwempi.
Ukuchitha Impi Akupheli, Njengoba Ukuxhashazwa Kuqukethe:
Ngenkathi impi ilimaza izwe elenza impi, ingabe ingakwazi ukucebisa leso sizwe ngokwedlulele ngokwenza lula ukuxhashazwa kwezinye izizwe? Hhayi ngendlela engasekelwa. Isizwe esihola phambili esenza impi emhlabeni, e-United States, sinama-5% wabantu emhlabeni kepha sisebenzisa ikota kuye kokuthathu kwemithombo yemvelo ehlukahlukene. Lokho kuxhashazwa bekungaba okungalungile futhi kungathandeki noma ngabe kusimeme. Iqiniso ngukuthi lokhu ukusetshenziswa kwezinsiza akukwazi ukulondolozwa. Izinsizakusebenza azikwazi ukuphinda zisebenzise, futhi ukusetshenziswa kwazo kuzonakalisa isimo sezulu somhlaba kanye nemvelo ngaphambi kokuphelelwa kokuthenga.
Ngenhlanhla, ukusetshenziswa okukhulu nokubhujiswa akulingani ngaso sonke isikhathi nezinga eliphakeme lokuphila. Izinzuzo zokuthula nokubambisana kwamazwe omhlaba zizozwakala ngisho nakulabo abafunda ukusebenzisa kancane. Izinzuzo zokukhiqizwa kwendawo kanye nokuphila okuqhubekayo akunakulinganiswa. Futhi enye yezindlela ezinkulu kakhulu lapho amazwe acebile esebenzisa imithombo ecekela phansi kakhulu, njengoyili, kungukulwa nje kwezimpi, hhayi nje ngendlela yokuphila okuthiwa ivunyelwe yizimpi. Okudingekayo yikhono elikhulu lokucabanga ngokushintshwa kokubekwa phambili kwezindleko. Amandla aluhlaza kanye nengqalasizinda bekuzodlula imicabango yabo emikhulu yabameli uma izimali manje ezitshalwe empini bezikhona idluliselwe lapho.
