This video reveals the shocking truth about defense contractors and how weapons manufacturing became a multi-billion dollar war economy that shapes global conflicts and military spending.
President Eisenhower warned Americans about the military industrial complex in his famous 1961 speech, but few understood how defense industry profits would come to dominate U.S. foreign policy. From World War 2 to modern conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq, we examine how companies like Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Raytheon, and Northrop Grumman turned the Pentagon into their biggest customer through lobbying and cost-plus contracts.
