16. if it was just about protecting we the people-

why would we need such a huge military...? where and who would we need fear invasion from? especially in the kinds of numbers it would ultimately take to suppress what would obviously become our own insurgency/underground.

nukes would be about the only thing that's going to conquer us militarily- until a deadlier technology comes along...and how can troops protect us from incoming icbm's..?
