It's wild to me that we only raised our military budget because of the cold war.
A war which has ended 40 years ago.
A war whose only competition self destructed and can't even take their tiny next door neighbor in 2024.
And all the rest of the world's military budgets combined don't even equal our own. We could literally cut the budget in half and still have more military spending than every country on earth.
I know I'm just rambling, but i feel like America is that dude with the luxury car in the apartment complex struggling to pay rent, because we insist on keeping the military bmw we can't afford and don't need, to stunt on people who don't care.
