What would happen if Joliet, Naperville and Aurora went to war? (high schools, income)

But does muscle beat brains? Lots of brains in Naperville along with the cash flow that could supply superior weapons.

Often. Ask Valens, von Manstein and Yama****a. Indeed Yama****a's career shows both an example of brains beating muscle (when he captured Maylaya and Singapore) AND muscle beating brains (when he was defeated by MacArthur on Luzon).

Naperville has money so they would pay people to help and but good weapons.

Lots of hunters in Joliet and Will-I think that is what Irishtom was alluding to.

Youre listing 3 examples in 5000 years of recorded military/fighting history. Brains beat muscle almost every time.

MacArthur, who graduated number 1 in his class at West Point, was extremely intelligent.

naperville will have more strategy and more money in their budget to purchase state of the art artillery, while joliet and aurora will just go at it rambo style

naperville will be victorious in the end

Well I thought three examples would get the point across, I'm not here to write a book.

You've also yet to demonstrate the people of Naperville are smarter anyway.

Yes, but that intelligence didn't transfer into the ability to be a great soldier; his performence in WW II was mediocre and Yama****a was clearly the more clever and creative soldier. But MacArthur's muscle allowed him to defeat Yama****a.
