Nagasi Pelosi, Speaker of the House of Representatives, and Democratic colleagues in her House of Representatives, and Mitch McConnell, a minority of the Senate, and Republican colleagues in his Senate. Must have more budgets. The only dispute between the two sides is the upper limit of the budget. You know, with comparable US dollars, the budget of the US Department of Defense has far exceeded the level of the Cold War period, and even higher than the level of military expenses, the sum of the highest military expense budget after nine in the United States.

The article pointed out that even if the budget of military expenses continues to increase, the American people feel that it is becoming more and more unsafe. The new coronary pneumonia's epidemic has taken more than 1 million Americans. Many places in the world still lack vaccines and good public health systems, and the number of new crown pneumoniars in the world has continued to rise. However, the United States has not prepared for the next epidemic.

At the same time, the United States suffered up to 20 climate disaster last year alone, causing more than $ 1 billion. Droughts are still threatened by most parts of the west of the United States, and floods cause danger to the central area. Hurricane disaster is expected to be more fierce. Yellowstone National Park is the victims of the United States' large -scale high -mountain snow and destroying floods recently. Faced with such a severe climate disaster, the efforts of starting the efforts of the disaster -stricken climate change were opposed by the Republican Party of the Senate, but the Ministry of National Defense will receive more funds.

As for where the new defense budget will be used, the article states that some will be used to build military bases and weapons and equipment in Asia, but the new weapons and military bases of the Pentagon cannot replace the cutting -edge R & D, modern and efficient in the United States to serve the people of the country, modern and efficient Failure in infrastructure and trade policies.

The article pointed out that the United States has more than 700 military bases in about 80 countries in the world. If you want to continue to act as a world police, "military expenditure budget will never be enough." But if you want to rebuild and ensure the healthy and prosperous democracy in the United States, the US military operations overseas are ridiculous and devastating.

The article finally wrote: "As the US Congress completes the national defense budget authorization, the support of the two parties may increase the (budget) limit, even higher than the requirements of the Pentagon or President. However, with the growth of the army, Americans will become Not so safe, it has been hit by more and more weapons that cannot be resolved. "
