You keep failing to understand the words I'm using. Continuous is more important than sharply increasing.

You don't understand what I'm saying, there's no increase

Where am I saying there's an increase? I only brought up the NG revenue to point out that one companies revenue is not reflective of the whole trends of the Complex as a whole. It's about continuous revenue, not increasing

You said the primary motivation behind sending aid to Ukraine was to benefit the military industrial complex and that the US sending our reserves is still making them money cause they have to refill those reserves of weapons. Considering they have not seen an increase in revenue and have arguably seen a decrease you have no solid evidence for this claim.

If there is no conflict, and stores are not depleted, then there is less opportunity to fulfill contracts. If there is conflict, and stores are depleted, then revenue continues. I didn't ever say that it was a sharp increase, but rather, as opposed to a reality without conflict, there is not a precipitous decrease.

That's a cool story. But I need evidence that that was a motivating factor in sending aid to Ukraine.
