By the way, is the military spending really necessary?
Of course it is - how else will the deep state kill loads of the world population, screw up the environment, and keep their taxpayers in debt slavery?
And poor brainwashed soldiers get told that they go to Iraq to liberate people, spread democracy, remove a dictator who is building nukes and threatening the world...
And there comes the truth, there was no nukes, no threats, people were free, but now there's less of them, which means less potential terrorists, right? And there's some oil, and money, and gold, and life goes on.
