Hypotheticals like this aren't particularly meaningful.

You can't assume one extreme or the other.  The world doesn't work like that.  

You're basically trying to stack the deck in your favor because few people are going to agree with the latter extreme.  

Which isn't particularly useful for "advancing the conversation".  

Ok, therefore....How much should the USA commit to defense spending on an annual basis? 

The OP had a conniption over the FY 19 total of $717 b.

In my opinion, yeah that is a bit excessive, I think $500-$600b is sufficient.  What say the rest of you? 

Give specific amounts, or a range of specific amounts like I just did.

0 b

I want world Peace T.T

All of that should be given for the poor in Africa to buy food.
