Enjoy getting invaded by China and Russia.

I think you need to get your "Food and Agriculture" guys to run your military. You could save a lot.

Let's just see how long they can fool the general US population, the scam works as long as they can create conflicts or keep it profitable. They had a close call with Vietnam.

But nothing lasts forever and US certainly isn't the one "empire to last forever"

>>73087507
This, the US is being cucked by corporatists to create wars so weapon manufacturies can make money.

>all these idiots that think this is the whole budget
It's the budget that Congress has direct control over. They don't have control over how much money is spent on "safety net" programs because the amount of money disbursed is determined by law and depends on the eligibility of individuals, not congressional fiat. Governmental organizations do not function this way and therefore fall under discretionary budget.

>>73088364
>corporate taxes only make up 11% of the entire budget of the US
Damn, corporations really do run the US.

>>73088594
And yet, our corporate tax rate is one of the highest in the world and people keep talking about reducing it, saying most companies shift their profit offshore or to tax havens

You know it's funny actually, pre-ACA I had great healthcare. Insurance was affordable and covered most or all of everything I ever needed growing up. Post-ACA insurance premiums go up every year but the coverage actually decreases. So basically every year I pay more money for less insurance, and it's gotten so expensive that my work can no longer completely cover our health insurance policies like they used to and instead covers half of my payment. I still pay more after that than I do for my car every month.

And the best part is... if you're too poor to pay for health insurance, they give you a big fat fine for being poor.

Obamacare didn't make insurance affordable for everyone, it did the exact opposite. It made it illegal to not have health insurance and killed off the entire range of affordable insurance packages. You know when you pass by a store and see something expensive that you want but would break your budget? It's like that, except you HAVE to break your budget because it's against the law to not buy it.

i'm not advocating for Obamacare, it was a shit giveaway to corporations

>>73089102
If the corporate tax in the US is so high why does it make up only a small margin of the budget and 1,5% of gdp?

>>73089744
Many companies use loopholes to avoid paying the full amount of tax, all America's high tax rate archives is keep business accountants well employed.

Why don't they just keep them parked on the ground then?

No country would invade given their current military stock. It's not as if they wouldn't retailiate and go back up to a 1 trillion dollar expenditure if someone declared war on them.
