To add to your comment, I'll just note that critics of VCs (and capitalism in general) are unique in being dissatisfied with either outcome. When they build businesses with presences in various countries, they claim that they are weakening a country by diffusing their power, making them reliant on other countries - which, if you think about it, reduces the possibility of war. At the same time, when they invest in a country's defense sector so that a country can defend itself against aggressors, they are simultaneously accused of inciting wars.
