That is b.s. If you look through out history, it is always the dominant military force that does the invading. You will not see Mexico invading the US anytime soon. It's always about the money or the plunder, now they just have it under other names for tax purposes.
It's not what you can use the money for, because there are plenty of good causes that lack the money the military drains out of the economy.
Just a thought, look at Canada, they spend almost nothing on their military and they have never been invaded or attacked..
It's always the rich nation attacking the poor, it's for the money. You have to think about turnover, if you build ten rockets, you need to use them to justify building ten more rockets. That is a fact.
