The west got itself into a trap in Ukraine. The west has to do significant investments in order to match Russia in terms of military industrial capacity. Meanwhile, western economies are already crumbling and the resources are scarce. Diverting resources towards military industry will lead to further austerity and collapse in living conditions in the west further fuelling internal discord and civil unrest.
It's almost like privatized industry is ineffective.
Russian industry is also privatised tho
As usual it is a question of control. In USA, presenting MIC as holding the leash of the entire state (or, one of the three leashes) would not be an exaggeration. So who would even dare to control anything when Pentagon never passed an audit?
Russia most probably controls their industry tighter.
