the 21 trillion requires debt payments tho
I don't think those numbers are accurate, but even if they are the rest of the world would be in trouble
by that the 21 would have shrunk
But even if we got rid of just the bare minimum that's still all paid off in less than 50 years
The US Military is effectively the Military of all of the West
yeah
We do all the heavy lifting
the amount of bases you boys have in 251 countries
Its no surprise
But the problem is i hear the obesity in the US is causing candidates for combat squads to be lower
Yeah no we have plenty of people that can join the military
That's a non issue
Yeah
the amount of Candidates for Marine Combat squads is just Low because anyone can join army . but Special forces needs to work out of a 100 people you need 13 Per squad
and they are mostly comming up with 10 per squad
We have lots of restrictions on joining the military. Any health condition kicks you out
The government will spend $4.407 trillion. Most of this, about 62 percent of expenditure, pays for mandated benefits such as Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.
Your info on the US Military isn't very accurate
well now
Closer to 2.5 trillion
But still
atleast your willing to admit it
Some would not
lol
Btw the US budget for defense is around 623 bil, where free college would cost around 30 trillion on the low end
Yeah thats what i read somewhere
thats allot of capita
Actually free college for everyone would cost about 1.5 trillion in ten years
Free healthcare for all would cost 30 trillion in ten years
That is depending on if the services dont triple their rates
Ah I probably swapped those two figures
Communism is too expensive, man
Life's hard
Yeah I agree
Abolish welfare
All our problems solved
Well not all of our problems
Also tbh I think we should forgive all current student loan debt
But the current system fucks people
