I don't think appeasing their donors is the whole story... but okay.

Military spending isn't the country's largest expense, I mean its a fraction of healthcare, entitlements, handouts, etc. So I'm not gonna defend military spending, but its not why this country is going broke per se.

I think you need to do some more research we spend more on our military then the next seven countries combined.  It costs $4 million dollars a year to keep one soldier in Afghanistan.  The majority of deficit spending since Reagan is due to military spending.

I don't think you're listening. Our military budget is indeed massive and arguably should be cut or used for efficiently, but its not the most of our budget, its not half of our budget, its not a quarter of our budget (not yet atleast).

Most of our budget is basically healthcare/medicare and entitlements, that's where spending is most out of control. Our military budget is fraction of that stuff.

People on the left speak as if the miltary spending is most of our budget and its the sole reason we have debt. But much of our spending goes elsewhere, there are also other things we waste too much money on.
