USA's Military Budget

When did we cross the line so far? How far do we permit ourselves to go with competitive acquisition of wealth at the expense of others and of our ecosystem?
I always thought that the family is the fundamental unit of society and the core for the growth and learning of life’s value. To some extent, the family is a venue for the primary development of a person's beliefs and ideas as established by a surrounding cultural milieu. Ideally, that process would result in a population capable of living their lives in line with a respect for a perpetually sustainable Earth and for each other. Somewhere on our way we have lost that line of possibility. Morality is disfunctional, and the overpowering value in operation is self-interest, without paying attention to the consequences of one’s action.
