Yes, US spends more than other countries when you count the amount of money, but when it comes to the percentage of the actual GDP being spent on the defense, USA is nowhere near the first place. This amount only seems big because US's GDP is so much bigger compared to other countries https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_military_expenditures Furthermore, even if the US cuts the military spending COMPLETLEY, as in, they dont spend a single dolar on it, they still wont be abel to pay for Communist Bernie's bullshit ''free'' (spoiler:even then it wont really be free) college |
I'm very curious where you get the math for the bolded.
The average college tuition (including room and board) is 23,872 a year (https://nces.ed.gov/fastfacts/display.asp?id=76)
The estimated number of college students in the US is 20.2 million. (http://nces.ed.gov/fastfacts/display.asp?id=372)
That comes out to 482 billion a year (this is assuming that universities keep their tuition as it is now) which the 682 billion mentioned before would more than cover.
Also, if free college is so impossible for a country to afford, why do other countires already have it?
