Because America is at war with someone every decade. Last time America wasnt in a war was in the 1930s.

I imagine most American's care more about American military spending, as they have to fund it. I imagine most Chinese can't say much if anything about their countries military spending due to the great firewall.

i sure do love our lack of adequate home spending while we get into Cold War scenarios trying to outspend China when the biggest threat to America are the delusional fascists trying to burn our democracy

oh wait you think a bigger country can just roll up tanks on us like we're a former satellite state lmfao cool logic

Not sure if you've been asleep at the wheel, but Putin's US-bound strategy was to inject tons of disinfo, not roll up tanks on us. Disinfo campaigns would be less effective if the United States was stable.

lmao the point of disinformation campaigns is to convince us into doing stupid shit like defunding our military.

Or did you think it's just a coincidence that Russian and Chinese policy goals happen to line up perfectly with every "anti-establishment" grifter on the internet?

Meanwhile, the wages for Americans continues to go down and the cost of living is skyrocketing. This shit looks bad. We used to look really good and strong to the outside world with people working their ass off to get RICH. You cant even barely pay rent on these bullshit $20-30k/year jobs, which is literally all thats available unless youre born into elitism or pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for a degree that probably wont even get you a job that you want.

These pentagon/military secret projects are causing people here to go without. Enough is enough and we need that money going to revitalize the workforce and force these CEOs to start paying fair salaries (no more wages). Were tired of tightening our belts so the government can flex its muscles to the rest of the world (who honestly doesnt give a fuck).

Congress controls spending. If it was up to Trump he would have gutted the military, yeah. He consistently attacked NATO and pulled out of Syria for the same reason.

Every time I think Russia is getting too obvious with this shit I run into a mark.

wow look at that Trump just destroyed the US military spending that's definitely how he destabilized us and not the open fascist rhetoric and attempted coup

yup Russia's main goal all along was a 4d chess move to get us to cut our military so they can roll up on us with tanks like the Ukraine. Totally wasn't to weaken the United States by exploiting its poverty and propelling candidates who sow conflict so none of America's at home problems get fixed.

broseph has figured it out

Yeah, if you believe the bullshit propaganda in the media. Facts are facts and people are helplessly broke. Why the fuck is generation z not working? It isnt because wages are too good. They took one look at how hard our generation has it and noped right out. We are in a fucking depression and people who should be making $70k/year are making $30

The current theme used to be create jobs. Now the theme is cut and automate the workforce and stop paying salaries.

If EVERYBODY is getting UBI how exactly are you in a better position to buy a house then vs now? Plus if housing and infrastructure improved that equates to more savings which equates to more money for everyone overall.
