This sounds an awful lot like Harry Harrison's little bit about why
bank robbery is good for the economy, in the "Stainless Steel Rat"
series :)

Actually Feral is hurting the economy. Those helos are being paid
for by tax dollars. And the collateral damage is being paid for by
insurance companies, who then charge higher premiums. So, as always,
the middle class kats are paying for Feral's incompetence.

It has the advantage of working, something the gimmicky ordnance
doesn't always do.
