A world with no or less weapons would make for such a better world. Educating people not to use weapons would largely contribute to peace.
The weapons industry is very powerful and a large employer. But the resources spent on weapons and the destruction of life and material should be used to invest in constructive activities like education, Nature care, development aid, social welfare...
