The fact is that our military defense has been subsidizing socialism in Western Europe and Israel for two generations. Let them dismantle some of their social welfare state too. If we’re going to have to pay for socialism in the world, I’d rather be paying for the social benefit of Americans than for Belgians or Germans.
