    Absolutely. In any case, the DoD spending money on anything is already bad.

        It is an unfortunate fact thatsomeone is going to have the biggest stick. USA/NATO absolutely should be criticized for how our military has been used and what we’ve sacrificed domestically in order to have that, but I’m pretty sure a world where Russia or China have had the biggest stick over the last few decades is markedly less peaceful, less just, and less free than the current status quo.
