You do realize that we overspend right?
I know we have an advanced military but we don't actually spend most of the defense on defense.

What is the point of this thread, that we can mass-subsidize defense contractors, turn around and say we have the most powerful military on earth while getting our ass handed to us by Shahed drones? And that's good? Sounds like individualism is the mental illness to me

Their defense spending contributes to the GDP to some degree, it's overpriced bullshit mostly, they can't even make a transparent budget for it. Every now and then they have to empty the missile stockpile so their military industrial complex can be fed with taxpayer money.

you should really scrap all those aircraft carriers and start giving permissions to privateers. i quite fancy getting into the piracy game.

"spends" or "embezzles"? What do you get for that money? The strait is still closed. Afghanistan is ruled by the Taliban again. You've run out of materiel and can't make more quickly enough. What are you getting for your money?
