    The US is far more likely to be involved in starting WW3 than russia’s part in it. The US also probably thinks its the only way to “be great again” by having another post war economic miracle.

Some large firms would benefit tremendously, others would lose. I imagine the prospective losers are the ones making the counterargument.
