After latest email revelations and endless dishonesty, time for Hillary Clinton to head for the hills

It's ultimately not the US's problem when a country like Luxembourg, which has about as high a likely hood of getting invaded as my apartment complex, isn't spending 3% of their GDP on the military

Yes it ultimately is. It is a problem when we spend money on places like you just said are not likely to be invaded. How is that not a problem in your eyes?

the F-35 project

I agree with this project. We have the best air force in the world for a reason. Let's keep it that way. The price of jets pails in comparison to the price of the wars we shouldn't be in. Keep -1ing me though. You are clearly a reasonable person.

if we weren't spending that money on one thing it'd be spent on another

But we don't have to. We keep electing idiots that will find a way to spend it on shit like mass transit. Yes that's local level wasted billions.

People like you say wasting billions over there is nothing and wasting billions here is nothing and blah blah blah. All these billions and billions add up. Why do you think Trump has such a huge following amongst veterans? Because he is the only one that actually wants to take better care of them, that's why.

but if they can get a job doing something else then that's good, perhaps that area needs light rail....

Building a rail is a temp job. Cement and steel companies add that to their yearly projects. It doesn't even create jobs other than the guys who drive the trains.

I don't understand how you are totally fine with America spending billions on countries that likely won't be invaded ever. It's not just that. We provide border security in Korea. Why? can't they watch their own yard?

Aren't you fed up with every country walking all over America and taking advantage of us every step of the way?

Can you answers my original question?

It is a problem when we spend money on places like you just said are not likely to be invaded. How is that not a problem in your eyes?
