History has been taught to us as a kid in a way that justifies wars in early American History. Revolutionary War, Civil War, and both world wars have sought justification for why the American military has been involved in fighting. Over the last century, the justification has faded and the reasons for fighting became more and more difficult to go along with, causing distrust in the American people. Vietnam, Iraq, and Palestine have all been examples of America being involved in warfare with little to no justification to convince the American public that the wars are beneficial to the country and the foreign land involved. The expansion and improvement of technology, television, and free-flowing information have shown people in real-time the atrocities of war and horrors that the members of the military and the people of foreign countries have to live through for “freedom” to be achieved. The uprising of morals and beliefs now convinces the American public that warfare is no longer needed to achieve a peaceful world. The significance of this topic lies in the belief that warfare is no longer needed in today’s environment to achieve goals and instead, it causes more damage than benefit. A question we can ask is what can be done to repair the damage that warfare has caused in the world today. Statistics and money patterns can help determine why the military has determined to fight wars as well as compare the priorities of the American people. We can expect to find out that if warfare brings in a financial benefit to congress on either their political or personal expenses, they tend to disregard the damage that warfare causes, and instead advocate for a new war.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
