I’ve posted this a few times but it fits here:

This country spent $8 Trillion on two wars over 20 years! That’s $400 billion each year.

This country could have paid for all the chemotherapy 80 times over

OR we could have paid for rebuilding/fixing this countries infrastructure for a 1/3 of that cost.

OR America could have built out a National high speed rail

Or many many other things.

instead we killed thousands of people and got what in return???
