War Profiteering

War profiteering refers to the practice of businesses or individuals making excessive profits from the war-related activities and military contracts during times of conflict. This often involves selling goods and services—such as weapons, supplies, and logistics support—to governments or armed forces at inflated prices. While some level of profit is expected in any business, war profiteering specifically implies exploiting the circumstances of war for personal gain, often at the expense of soldiers' welfare or broader humanitarian concerns. It raises ethical questions about the motivations of those involved in wartime economies.
