Mr. Trump has called for our allies (NATO, South Korea, etc.) to increase their military spending since the US is paying so much to support them military. You'd think he would also be expecting to reduce our militrary spending too. But, nooooooooooooooo, he is proposing to increase it by 54 BILLION dollars. Why???
Why do we need to spend even MORE money if other nations are supposed to fork over more money to protect themselves?
I don't even think this thought train depends on whether you agree or disagree with other countries paying more. I think as a planet, we should try to reduce military spending planetwide.
So, if other NATO nations pay more for 'their' defense, why should the US increase its military spending? And, if NATO nations DON'T pay more, even then, why should we pay more?
Really, why should we be screwing kid's lunches up in either case?
Oh, wait, it couldn't be a way to enrich military contractors, could it? Nah?
