Who are you, Cathy Newman? Of course I didn't say that. I am saying that war use to be the way a nation would get the resources of another. Trade is the peaceful option.
What about "Trade Wars", that is a sort of war, where goods and services get bombarded by taxation and quotas left and right. Luckily goods and services can not suffer themselves.
This is true. Trade wars do have repercussions. I could instead say that wars have become less deadly. Which is amazing considering the rise in population.
