Honestly it just appears even worse than that. Like a 1:100 ratio or even worse. It really does seem like the U.S. just burns its entire treasury every year in some sort of sacrifice to mammon and every bit of actual military operation that happens squeaks by on a shoestring budget 1/15th of the stated spending
I know the pentagon keeps failing audits and it’s the griftiest shit ever, it’s still just staggering to see the scale and disparity between money spent and what the u.s. actually seems to get out of it
The market is the state religion of the US. The government pours trillions into to keep stock prices happy, because the line going down is the modern equivalent of a comet coming by, signaling a great catastrophe.
