In 2015, The Washington Post discovered a report that showed how the DoD was wasting nearly $125 billion dollars due to bureaucratic waste.  In the report, they identified a clear path forward that would bring the defense budget down by 15-20 percent. According to the Washington Post’s sources, the report was buried amid fears that it would lead Congress to cut their budget even further.

Other projects include the F-35 program, the EA-18G Growler program, and F/A-18 Super Hornets. These weapons systems are extremely cool and groundbreaking, but in the end, they are just too expensive and rarely work properly.

The military spends a ridiculous amount of its budget on civilian contractors. In 2016, the DoD awarded over $300 billion in defense contracts. $100 billion of that went to just five companies: Boeing, Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Gruman, and General Dynamics.

If you’re saying “good for them”, you’re right. The CEO’s of those companies took home a combined $100 million in pay that was partly subsidized by your tax dollars. And if you think that all that spending is creating jobs, the evidence doesn’t support that claim.

In 2011, the University of Massachusetts released a study by economists that showed that defense spending is the worst at creating jobs. If we were to spend that much money on infrastructure, health care or any other area of purview that the government has, we would create twice as many jobs. If you want more jobs and therefore a stronger economy, defense spending might not be the best way to do it.
