US is still number one when it comes to the military industrial
complex; in fact it's the world's biggest military spender - it spends six
times more than China, their closest rival. There is no single nation
across the globe posing a threat to America, neither there is a Cold
War anymore. Why spend such a huge amount of money for Pentagon
needs? David Swanson, author of the book "War is a Lie" explains.

1. We actually spend just about as much as
the entire rest of the world combined. And that probably does not even include "black box" items, which aren't even in the budget at all.
