Got to remember though, its just a redirection of money. Everything they spend it on pretty much comes back here for the military industrial mfg. sector of our economy, troops sending their money home, etc.
That's somewhat true, but money to maintain run tanks, guns, rockets, airplanes, etc does NOT return to the U.S. And that by far is the biggest chunk of change we have to pay out.
