Governments slow down advancement. They're only interested in tech useful to them, and when it's convenient. We don't need wars to get better tech.

Can you name, off the top of your head and without additional resources, a piece of technology that was driven solely by the Iraq War or the War in Afghanistan?

>drives innovation
The innovation is there all the time, it's just that turning ideas to reality takes money, sometimes a lot of it. During war politicians finally give it.

this is why the United States has been in a simmering state of war for many decades now. There is no other way to stay on top. Orwell was right again...

Cold wars of today do what industrialized hot wars did in the past. If our cold war ever goes hot, it would be very bad for advancement of science.
