| Sommario/riassunto: | President Dwight Eisenhower famously warned against private companies gaining too much influence with the Defense Department. In the years since, what he termed the military-industrial complex has both provided an important boost to the nation's economy and generated debate-- particularly during the Iraq War when the former head of a controversial defense contractor served as vice president. |
