Answer: An Illusion.

Explanation:  One of the most celebrated paradoxes in the history of philosophy is that which tells the story of the Greek hero Achilles and the tortoise. It is said that Achilles, running a race with a tortoise, in a rush of generosity, decided to give her a small advantage, letting the animal break a few inches in front of him. According to the Greek philosopher Zeno, as fast as Achilles moved, he could never get past the tortoise. The paradox formulated by Zeno is this: each time Achilles travels a certain distance within a given time, the turtle has already traveled another distance

What Zeno was doing was to demonstrate that the movement of objects is an unrealistic and contradictory phenomenon, always consisting of mere illusion of the senses.

Anni [7]
<span>A sudden influx of wealth from military action would throw off the balance of wealth in that, while other non-military people may have previously been wealthy, they would now no longer be wealthier than the soldiers who served them. With too much wealth, the value of money would also go down, causing the economy to actually decline. Also, with such an influx of wealth to the already wealthy, a larger rift would be created between the wealthy and the poor. That this wealth was accrued through military action would encourage more military action and more violence.</span>
