IS MILITARY SPENDING WASTEFUL?

When a country spends trillions to win wars and is stymied by a country that spends millions, is the spending justified?
No.

When a country neglects its poor masses and spends trillions to pad the bank accounts of the one percent, is the spending justified?
No.

When a country spends trillions on war to complicate a problem that was already solved by dialogue, is the spending justified?
No.

When a country spends trillions on the military and uses sanctions to impoverish other countries, is the spending justified?
No.

If ten percent of the trillions spent by countries on the arms race were spent on food, employment, infrastructure, and peace-building initiatives, imagine the results on poverty, hunger, and global warming.

Peace needs as much financing as wars!
