I think the government is spending too much on the military. While people in the richest country on earth are homeless, starving, and becoming crippled with hospital debt while trying to stay alive, the country delegates all of its money to terrorize third world countries and scare others. While having an advanced military is effective, redistributing some funds to domestic issues like the housing crisis and supportive healthcare would make the United States as a whole more united. Arguably, having a secure and cohesive population trumps the need for excessive military weapons.
I hope this helps :)

Answer: In my opinion no because all they are doing is to protect the country I think they use the money to buy supplies and emergency funding which is caused by the crisis, natural disaster, or rapid changes in the price of commodities they spend most of the money on training and planning, maintenance of equipment, and most of the military healthcare system

Explanation: btw I really what to go to the military!!
