Yes it's a difficult one mate and suppose it's what you define as the MIC - to my mind it's the folks with 51% controlling interest in all U.S. arms manufacturers (and most other things) so it may be unfair to legitimately term them 'military' as they are more of a private banker group motivated by absolute self interest.
That Eisenhower warning was a pretty powerful one and when it comes to Carter would be interested in your take on the vid below where Patrick Wood explains how the T.C. 'captured the United States Executive branch' and 'got their hands on the economic machinery of the world'.

And they said that back in those days “Oh, no, we’re not interested in politics.” Well, I really don’t think they were. They wanted to get their hands on the economic machinery of the world, and they did that by capturing the United States Executive branch. They didn’t care about Congress, they didn’t care about the judiciary. They only cared about the engine of economic prosperity, if you will, and that was our government."
