business-model

When your father starts the war and your sons back the drone company, that’s not patriotism—it’s a business model. “War for us” is the brochure; “contracts for them” is the checkout button, and somehow everyone acts surprised that the sacrifice comes with an invoice.

Call it duty if you want, but it keeps doing the same thing: wrap profit in family-values cosplay, convert danger into procurement, and let “drones, data, dominance” sell the sky as a subscription plan. The country gets the costs. The insiders get the contracts. Same story, different flag.
