Really good stat on itv news show last night about the situation in the US, they spend trillions of dollars annually on defence to make their military the best in the world to protect the nation from foreign enemies but now they are under attack from a hidden force and have no provision to fight it.
What good is that military budget now.

People may say same about our spending on Trident. Not so useful against a virus is it.

Yep, let's not fool ourselves into thinking we're any different.

The US military budget and, to a lesser extent ours has little to do with security, and more to do with economic reality and lining the pockets of huge corporations.
