I dunno....and I'm probably alone on this but I think security is very important.
If Africa is dependent on American dollars....maybe the nations of Africa should consider adopting the American constitution....maybe that would clear up all the fighting and BS that is over there and they could then feed their own people.

Enough about the starving people. It is so easy to criticize, but these government waste about the same proportion of money as you and I do. Sure the military could be deemed a waste of money, until a plane flies into your office building and cause it to collapse.
Look at how much resources every regular person wastes everyday. Water, fossil fuels, money. We drive everywhere release green house gases, we water our lawns so they are green when folk in Africa has none, we eat too much and/or throw out huge amounts of food, we add more and more garbage everyday with various packaging, etc. We all live in house that are bigger than we need, we buy things we don't need.
So before we hold the government accountable, let's look at ourselves.
If we totaled the amount of money Canadians or Americans wasted every year, I think it would pale in comparison to what governments spend on the military.

The money could be spent better, but it is the corperations who with politicians in their back pocket that run the world and they will not do anything that puts a dent in their wallets.
