I was told that America's budget is like 35% military while all those socialist countries in Europe struggle to spend 1% on military, so America provides their global security as a relic of WWII and they get to provide all kinds of cool social programs instead of spending it on security. Is that right? It's just what I heard on Fox News. I would prefer to be corrected on this. As I said before, I'm here to learn.
