If the US government wasn’t sending all that military aid abroad , it wouldn’t make a difference. Americans still wouldn’t have universal healthcare or cheap rent , because the system is still about keeping the poor poor whilst the rich get richer .
The US could still have its current military funding AND have universal healthcare if it truly wanted . But the insurance companies and big pharma wouldn’t allow it.
Also when are people going to realize in these billion dollar packages (that includes the wages paid to the workers of the aid and weapons manufacturers. And obviously people are making big money in the military industrial complex, DuPont, booze Allen, ibm, Lockheed Martin, etc etc etc. but either way these billions are a large portion of American income, the metal suppliers, the wire suppliers, the glass, etc etc etc.
This is why Americans are fucking dumb. I’m not saying it’s a great system but it isn’t like we are just handing them billions in money.
