I don't think OP is talking about a specific war, but the overall cost to maintain such a capability and project force all over the world. At least that is what I perceive when people lament about lack of healthcare.
The United States military budget is now 1.5 trillion dollars per year.
- onlyrealcuzzo 7mo agoSure, we could just not have a military and hold hands with Russia and China and everyone else. We wouldn't need healthcare. We'd just be dead.
- ParentiSoundSys 7mo agoOf course it might cost a lot less if we didn't need to pay for unprovoked attacks on countries like Venezuela and Iran.
- Ajakks 7mo agoWhat if they didnt try to kill us tho? What if the world is so interconnected now, that we actually could hold hands - especially if we already had those asteroids already at the Lagrange points - if we were "post-scarcity" as a species, what would be worth fighting over? We absolutely can, and will, go get those asteroids.
