You have it slightly wrong. Military spending isn’t welfare spending. However, placement of bases and resources is not always determined by the best location, but who owes who a favor in Congress.
“You have it slightly wrong. Military spending isn’t welfare spending.”
That is my whole point. Liberals try to say ANY spending sent to a State to include military and infrastructure spending is welfare spending on that State. They do that because it makes it appear their “blue” States support “red” States.
