This isn't a full explanation since I'm just dictating real quick, but I'm assuming this will build on what other commenters have added. The U.S. state is privatized and fundamentally opposed to capital controls. In order to have an effective industrial warfare strategy, it would need to actually apply pressure to investors in the military industrial complex, other than saying, have at it make as much money as you can. The U.S. doesn't suddenly sprout factories when it gets additional funding in the MIC. It makes the weapons more expensive.
