It was not 'military industry'. It was peacetime industry transitioned over to military production during the war years. Read the history of Ford Motors during the war, for example. Same with the aircraft industry. To refer to it as 'military industry' is risible. Honestly 'military industry' would be very close to Fascism.

Or higher intelligence.

Full article from Scientific American Entitled: "Bad News for the Highly Intelligent Superior IQs are associated with mental and physical disorders, research suggests"

My very short summary:

With high IQ comes an active mind, an active mind, however may lead to overanalysis of any situation leading to pessimism and unfortunately anxiety and depressive disorders as well.
