$2.7 Billion per day. That’s how much the US will spend next year to prop up the military & 800+ bases it maintains in over 70 countries. US military drops a bomb every 12 min on nations most Americans can't find on a map 👇
That money is more than enough to pay for 4 yrs of college for every college student in this country, to fund food stamps & other social safety nets that help our most vulnerable including our veterans & to fund programs that would cut fossil-fuel emissions by 40 percent by 2035.

but missing from this conversation, however, is an analysis of the role militarism and empire plays in driving the chaos. The U.S. military is the world’s largest polluter and emits more carbon dioxide than a hundred countries combined.
