Given our spectacular failures in Iraq and Afghanistan, our continuing to feed the same war machine that produced them is a sure sign - as if we needed it - that our military budget has little if anything to do with national security.

Call it what it is: socialism for defense contractors.

The Gulf Wars weren't failures. They were money laundering operations. Unfortunately 2 million people had to die.

War is a money making machine

Trying to fix a huge mistake is not easy. It is very multifaceted and fixing one area does harm to another. What is your answer to the situation?

There needs to be accountability not deny deny deny

Indeed. Imperialism and national security are not the same!

I don’t know, the defense budget seems far more germane to national security than your space crystal bullshit is to people’s pocketbooks. Also, the first things that will be cut are good programs that don’t directly relate to readiness and lethality, not bombs like you imagine.
