>>508665319 (OP)You what. Service economies are the biggest joke on the Planet. They sell climate change while single handedly causing competing population booms. Worse they've increased mass migration to statistics as high 20-25% of their populations. They rely exclusively on corporate daisy chains of overpriced manufacturer. Today they lack most relevant skills without using far more foreign labour to increase a lacking skill gap.
You couldn't have a bigger bunch of idiots if you actually tried to have a conflict. Of course they're relying on nuclear weapons anyway and not a convetiinal confluct.
They increase defense spending but most have not secure their own borders being invaded by illegals or the crime skyrocketing as result of the hyperinflation and recession caused it.
They're more technologically advanced although it's becoming a lesson in irony
