Or maybe we could stop funneling hundreds of billions of dollars into failed wars.

Iraq isn't quite failed, but I agree with your overall point. It'd be best if we tried to cut as much funding to useless things as possible.

I wouldn't be so sure, we pay a lot of bribes to keep it half-way peaceful in the major areas there and when that money dries up it will be a different story. And Afghanistan.. that's never going to turn out good, we're just dumping money into the wars to try to cover our asses for not moving to a more stable and renewable energy source 4 decades ago.
