>Tons of people have been outraged by the war
I am not talking about the war itself. I am talking about the outrage over spending on wars. For example, there is barely any debate in the public sphere about 'where to get money to spend on wars', but if it helps poor or middle income people, like say increased welfare payments, or healthcare or college, suddenly there is a huge outcry over "how do we pay for it".
