You didn’t explain anything and i just laid out the solution. Shrink the military budget.
And come on. You’re basically saying they should be grateful for their cage and no bed/shower/toothpaste. Beyond gobling whatever political bullshit youre being sold, that shit should bother you.
You have to compare military spending per GDP, USA is fourth behind Saudi Arabia, Israel and Russia. The military spending of France and Turkey is comparable to the USA as a % of GDP.
You have to take into account GDP, California has a higher GDP than India. It also says it’s below historical average as % of GDP and it will continue to decline.
So the argument then would be that the 682 billion dollars is more affordable for us than it is for 3 other countries.
Ok, but its still 682 billion and much more than what’s necessary. It still leaves us with a bunch of extra military bases around the world. We still decommission lord knows how many military vehicles each year.
Too much money spent is still too much money spent whether it 4th or 1st
this topic was done to death in the old threads and the hot takes were just as idiotic then as they are now.
on this scale? no, this was a question answered in the old thread and before one of you posters runs up in here and embarrasses himself with a hot take. obama didn’t have a family separation policy like trump falsely claimed he inherited from obama. that was a straight up lie. everything you people are talking about is the direct result of the trump administration’s “zero-tolerance” policy towards immigration. their policy choice of systematically separating families are a feature not a bug and only inherent in this administration.
apparently, the trump administration is laboring under the delusion that family separation is a deterrence to immigration. obviously, this wasn’t the case because they were completely ill-prepared for the unforseen consequences which is a direct result of their poor policy choice. other administrations chose not to rashly and impulsively pursue a similar policy due to the unintended consequences inherent with such extreme policy making.
obviously, this isn’t a problem for the trump administration since shifting the blame to others when poorly thought out decisions erupts into a crisis of their own making is also a feature of the trump administration.
cult45 should know exactly what i’m talking about since trump recently threw his entire fucking cult under the bus to save his ass. lol…it’s hilarious how trump stans try to act like it’s didn’t happen and go right back to blindly co-signing dumb shit from their cult leader after he just shitted on them.
why would it bother them? you do realize you’ve been mostly conversing with cult45 members? furthermore, if you were in the old threads you would have seen them defend and co-sign all kinds of dumb shit even after trump undermined them.
OTOH, i am grateful to them because the amount of clowning, sonning and all around fuckery i pulled on these trump stans was…
anyway, start at my post and work you way down and laugh at the all the ridiculous stanning and hot takes.
If Sadia Arabia wants to spend like there no tomorrow despite their biggest cash cow, oil been on the decline (in terms of how much non-renewable resources left untapped). Let them.
And Israel, we fund their military spending.
No one comes close to man numbers or equipment for our military. China can match us for personnel but they would lack basic gear and weapons for everyone. But that is it.
You know how the US beat the USSR?
The USSR spent too much on the military and they went broke. And the Russian Federation sold alot of old Soviet gear and tech to fund basic needs for the country.
What are you going to do when the petrodollars run out and we have a collapse of our dollar? Nobody seems to think or account for what the petridollar does for americans in terms of funding, apending, etc.
Rather than adress the points, or wven look yp the claims,
Proceeds to focus on the non issue of spelling errors. Its like im dealing with a female 3rd grade teacher who refuses to adress rhe meat of the argument because of non issues because it stresses her out.
Oh he’s definitely implying you’re an idiot. Pretty sure you started the insults tho. Unless you consider calling out your lack of understanding of basic economics an insult. Sorry that you’ve shown that to be fact.
You implying that we should juat let people migrate with no restrictions, or aaying that economic policy that leads to hyperinflation iant real because that was in the past speaks for itself.
What i am telling you is that you are being an intellectual coward, acting like a grade achool teacher that refuses to address arguments over atupid irrelevant pponta in an attempt to avoid having actually adress points.
Your ducking and weaving as hard as k4polo and mr punk, and thats intellectually cowardly of you.
