New conservative bullshit has arrived. Apparently, poor wittle, america forgoes awesome social programs so that it can protect Europe. Not included, "its so hard to be a super powrer."
so this christian group is all for moving all that u.s. military budget into u.s. social services, right? right?
Lol. No.
Europe actually payed a lot for this "military service" including interest, the us made a lot of surplus money from their "insane amount of money they pumped into europe" so thats actually not called "pumping money in", but "invest in war and squeeze more money out"

Also germany payed (or actually continues to pay, not sure) yearly huge amounts of money for us military stationed there. And that military germany pays for isn't even there to only protect germany, but to help the us with their invasions into other countries too.
some countries where the us squeezed money out or resources out or invaded, destroyed or undermined democracy a.s.o.: https://www.seedshirt.de/us-world-domination-tour
and thats not even the full list.
It's no mystery america has gotten filthy rich off of waging war around the world. The absurdity of this poster is something else and I'm ashamed to be on the same planet as them.

Thats imho basically called sth like "blood debt" in nearly all cultures that have ever existed and we know of. i guess the dinosaurs will - as always - go extinct again.

can you pinpoint "something else" to me? i see some flaws but also have the feeling that i dont get what you want to say.
