The only ones who truly benefit from the #WarMachine are #Corporations! And this is further proof! My uncle was in the US Army and when he was discharged, he could fix just about anything electro-mechanical! But nooooo...

Congress Quietly Kills Military “#RightToRepair,” Allowing #Corporations to Cash In on *Fixing* Broken Products
Both chambers included Pentagon budget provisions for a right to repair, but they died after defense industry meetings on Capitol Hill.

"The idea of a 'right to repair' — a requirement that companies facilitate consumers’ #repairs, #maintenance, and modification of products — is extremely popular, even winning broad, bipartisan support in Congress. That could not, however, save it from the #MilitaryIndustrial complex.
"#Lobbyists succeeded in killing part of the National Defense Authorization Act [#NDAA] that would have given service members the right to fix their equipment in the field without having to worry about military suppliers’ intellectual property.
"The decision to kill the popular proposal was made public Sunday after a closed-door conference of top congressional officials, including defense committee chairs, along with Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., and Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D.
"Those meetings were secret, but consumer advocates say they have a pretty good idea of what happened.
" 'It’s pretty clear that defense contractors opposed the right-to-repair provisions, and they pressed hard to have them stripped out of the final bill,' said Isaac Bowers, the federal legislative director at #USPIRG. 'All we can say is that #DefenseContractors have a lot of influence on Capitol Hill.'
"The idea had drawn bipartisan support in both the House and Senate, which each passed their own versions of the proposal.
"Under one version, co-sponsored by Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., and Sen. Tim Sheehy, R-Mt., defense companies would have been required to supply the information needed for repairs — such as technical data, maintenance manuals, engineering drawings, and lists of replacement parts — as a condition of Pentagon contracts.
"The idea was that no service member would ever be left waiting on a contractor to fly in from Norway to repair a simple part — which once happened — or, in another real-life scenario, told by the manufacturer to buy a new CT scanner in a combat zone because one malfunctioned.
"Instead of worrying about voiding a warranty, military personnel in the field could use a 3D printer or elbow grease to fix a part.
" 'The military is a can-do operation,' Bowers said. 'Service members can and should be able to repair their own equipment, and this will save costs if they can do it upfront and on time and on their schedule.' "

"Putin will be joined by Andrei Belousov, his defence minister, and a wide-ranging delegation from business and industry, including top executives of Russian state arms exporter Rosoboronexport, and reportedly the heads of sanctioned oil firms Rosneft and Gazprom Neft."

#MIC / The 2023 financial reports revealed a record-breaking year for Israel's state-owned aerospace and defense giants like Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), Elbit Systems, and Rafael Advanced Defense Systems. Their success was fueled by surging global demand for military equipment amid the wars in Ukraine and Gaza.
IAI announced its highest-ever annual sales of $5.3 billion, a 7% increase from 2022, with net profits soaring 49% to $318 million. Its order backlog swelled to $18 billion thanks to the conflicts.
According to the Swedish #SIPRI institute's report on the world's 100 largest arms companies, #Elbit ranked 24th, #IAI 35th, and #Rafael 42nd in 2022 sales - not yet reflecting the full impact of the Gaza war revenues.
The report highlights how the aerospace giants, including former Labor party leader Amir Peretz who chairs IAI with a $125,000 monthly salary, have profited immensely from the surge in global arms trading driven by the region's wars.
Israel's well-established defense exporters capitalized on heightened military spending, solidifying their positions among the world's largest weapons manufacturers dominated by U.S. corporations like Lockheed Martin and Raytheon.
