CHINA'S MIL. BUDGET IS 1/12TH US'S
In my opinion, the solution is simple: stop military waste=expenditure. China has billions more population than US, while their military budget is miniscule. The US military complex is wagging our dog's tail. out of control. Chop it's budget way back....quick
I'm afraid it is more complex than that
As an economist I'm very comfortable that Walker and this report are correct. Fortunately, the same leadership that has bankrupted America for our youth has also destroyed our planet so all mankind will die before the bills come due.
Disrupt IT
Always more complicated
I suppose all the deeply in debt families in this nation, as well as the nation itself, are depending on the demise coming before the due bill. Also, I heard that the Chinese military owns major businesses unlike our military. With such experience they may have a competitive advantage. Unfortunatley the military-industrial complex in this nation is pretty chop resistant. The arms and Star War manufacturers are the tale wagging the dog. What would it take to chop it down?
