The US massively over spends pretty much everywhere. Healthcare? Yup. Space? Yup. Government salaries? Yup. New toilets? Yup. Propaganda? Yup. I'm not even touching on the massive amount of fraud our handouts have or all the no bid government contracts given out to donors. Take out military over spending (~15% of the budget) and you still have massive over spending in ~85% of our budget. We need to tackle to massive over spending at its root (our elected and non elected government officials) not at a symptom of the root issue (military over spending). Look at it like this. If we look at everything, over spending would be reduced in our entire budget. If we just focus on military overspending, over spending would be reduced in 14% of our budget. But as nothing else is reduced there will be no real change. Slowly overtime the over spending will creep right back into the military. There is no logical argument to be made for only targeting military overspending. It makes a good political talking point but that is about it.
