If you did a search you will discover you are wrong. The greatest percentage of the budget goes to entitlements, not national défense. If we don't spend enough on défense EVERYTHING else will be gone

The Iraq and Afghanistan wars are being funded OFF-BUDGET.
Do you consider the maintenance of military presence in 130 countries to be "defense"? If so, explain how China considers itself safe without doing the same.
The US is surrounded by water and we have friendly neighbors that depend on us for their survival. The counties that invaded China in recent memory were their neighbors

Still no justification for military presence in 130 countries.
And who has "invaded China in recent memory"?
And how do you consider Mexico "friendly" when they won't do DICK about the taco invasion (although they have a policy of torturing and killing illegal immigrants themselves)?
Japan and the former Russian Republic, you must be a youngster.
You seem to forget it is our military that makes it possible for you to talk stupid all the time LOL

No, I just know that China did not exist in its present form in either
1898 or 1931.
If the military doesn't get properly deployed, we'll be talking Spanish all the time.
Japan and the Soviet Union. But I don't disagree with you about China's defense policies.

China and the Soviet Union had rather major border battles at least as recently as the 1970s.
