The military budget isn't the entirety of military spending. It doesn't include the VA budget, the DOE budget (maintaining those nukes), the actual cost of wars themselves, etc. Adding up all the parts, it's pretty close to a trillion a year - about 933 billion. https://www.thebalance.com/u-s-military-budget-components-challenges-growth-3306320 https://www.thebalance.com/u-s-military-budget-components-ch...
