Remember, HN is not with 100% US members. I'm not an US citizen and the US government does not give a flying fuck about my opinion toward their military spending. On the other hand, not all of the US citizens are eco friendly and are much pro US military than me, so it makes sense for them to vote for it.

A store of value has to be backed by something (know-how, labor, natural resources, etc.), and these somethings (and their markets) have to be defended (agreements, force, counterespionage...), and all of this consumes a great deal of energy, but good luck finding out what that number is in the media. That's much harder piece of homework than typing a number into a mining calculator, hitting enter, and posting another the-sky-is-falling opinion piece on Medium.
