No we don't. Especially given China is a potential military adversary, and they're on the opposite side of a giant ocean from us. Also the US military budget

No we don't. Especially given China is a potential military adversary, and they're on the opposite side of a giant ocean from us. Also the US military budget is not standing in the way of increased domestic spending. We just need to treat other areas of government with the same reverence as the military, and we partially do (look how badly every attempt to cut Social Security fails).
