Agree or disagree: The arms industry is immoral.

Depending on what we are, the answers may well vary, and they all make sense, but in my view, the arms industry is immoral, even if it might be necessary. Now let me explain the details.     

First, as globalization progresses, several large multinational corporations control the arms industry. They persuade governments to increase military spending to buy more weapons. Plus, they fund pro-military campaigns, obstructing politicians who work for disarmament. In addition, they are researching how to kill people, damage environment, and spread viruses. Surely, their activities are immoral enough.     

Next, I understand some may argue that arms industry helps promote the global economy. Even though it has a point, they have become too rich, expanding wealth gap. It is one of the major issues of globalization. Instead, if we invest that money in manufacturing and education, the economy will prosper and society will improve. This is a more moralistic way to go.           

Therefore, while the arms industry may seem beneficial to our society in some ways, I conclude that we should be skeptical about its morality. Thank you for your attention. [182 Words Type-N]
