The US Military budget is roughly 4% of GDP right now, or round about 1/5 of the Federal Government's Income.

Weirdly enough, Europeans kind of shut up about that being "too high" sometime in early 2022. As long as spending money on the military is politically preferable to letting \[insert ally here\] fall to an invasion from \[insert enemy here\], preventative healthcare like that isn't going to go away.

Oh, and let's not forget that militaries are one of the main reasons behind why societies formed in the first place.
