  1. I got sick of having to look up exactly how many countries we outspend in any given year. Now I go with this: we spend almost as much as the rest of the world combined. The number is usually around US 48% compared to 52% for the rest of the world. It's an amazing statistic. There are just under 200 countries!

  2. We also have something like nearly 900 military bases around the world -- more than enough for four bases in each country. It's ridiculous to think we need that for self-defense. It's for intimidation -- to force other countries to bend to our will. We are the world's biggest bully.
