Just to be sure, the correct way to read it was "The US spends way to much on it's military as shown by how even fantasy situations like this don't actually pose the US military much challenge."
+ People should take a look in the mirror, since a lot of those same people who think the US spends too much still want to think the EU can win in a fight due to macho pride causing them to betray their liberal beliefs. When such beliefs should see being the weaker force as country as a good thing.
And again, for people who think Europe will win. Tell me how Europeon troops ever land on American soil.
The US navy roughly accounts for 50% of the entire world's naval strength.

Ridiculious... and that's without even considering the inherent differences within ship classes.
And this isn't even counting the fact that weapons will need to be replaced, and factories take a loooong time to build... and the US has by far the most factories ready to build more weapons today....and due to how US poltics works, these factories are all over the place making them far to spread out to effectivly striek.
And the fact that the US has the world's best weapons for avoiding being shot down, and bombing factories.
