    While I’m glad we are increasing pay for troops and aid for Ukraine, I believe that our defense spending is incredibly out of control. We are spending egregious amounts of money to ensure that we could murder the entire world instead of spending that money on more worthwhile things. I’m not saying cut all defense spending but even a 30% cut would be more than welcome.

      Bro wait one year and the whole world is going to be fighting.

      Especially when 3rd world countries start collapsing because of climate catastrophes and we just gave these massive migrations.

      That it’s of course also dependet on weather the Chinese get bolder or no
