It is time to reduce the military budget. Why are we spending so much on intervening in other countries' affairs? If powerful nations like the US and Russia are unable to defeat smaller countries, then why even attempt it? In today’s world, attacking another country is akin to committing suicide—it's a waste of critical resources that the world desperately needs. The US military budget should focus on defense rather than acting as a global peacekeeper. Instead of funding unnecessary military interventions, budget cuts should be redirected toward projects that benefit the people, such as Medicare for All. Perhaps men are inherently more aggressive, and the world could benefit from having more women leaders.
