I admit that things have changed since then. Things are worse now. What is the point in spending more money on offense than the rest of the world combined in a post-cold war environment?

I agree that we have a lot of wasteful spending when it comes to the United States military. That said, do you have any data showing that spending is 'worse now' than it was 25 years ago?
