Military budget bonkers

-
When military spending increases by the federal executive branch exceeds beyond what military leaders them self ask for, you can note something else not being discussed is being mismanaged.

These excess funds can be better spent else where like: Healthcare, infrastructure, internet expansion, renewable energy.

To go along with a military budget is personal.  You have active duty personal that just like any job requires them to be full time at hours of 30-40hrs per week.  Spending is the same on these people deployed or not.  Differences between deployed and not:

  1. Deployed they are: covering assets, helping assure diplomatic relations, helping other nations in need, doing random tasks, disrupting major crime in other areas like pirates and gangs that disrupt economy and travel.
  2. Not deployed they are: mostly running laps around base, taking up part-time local jobs, disrupting local economy.
^^^  Yes it would be nice to have personal at home near family/friends or out of danger.  But which would help the nation more as a whole in a functionable fashion?  In the short term undeploying them helps emotions but the disruption of local economy hits emotions more so then if they were deployed.

Tax's, interest and penilties...oh boy

So so many holes here that are too many to list.  But just summarizing is that nothing else helps to widen the gap of income inequality then them.  Lower your income the less incentives and exemptions you either qualify for or utilize. Limit pricing, Subsidies, Tax evasion, Refusal to deal, Deregulation, Product sabotage If your income is high enough the exemptions you can utilize gets what you need to pay so little that has no effect on your income.  This is in contrast to the other extreme where what you can utilize is so little that you end up paying more in taxing then anything else from your income. Being on the bottom end you end up paying more then you earn resulting in owing more and more over time making matters worse.  This has literally nothing on what your spending as the money is claimed before you even get it home. Incentive programs for doing things that end up letting you spend less in the long run, but the entry fee and entry level is so high...

Packaging bloatware

Here we have different aspects coming into each other:  Marketing, Shipping, Security, Storage, Manufacturing. Space and size directly effect shipping costs, storage costs and manufacture costs. The actual package it's self, some ideas are good and others are bad. Larger the package is the less documentation that needs to printed and shipped. Packages with air are crush able and take up extra space. Packages with extra padding are much larger but are questionable safer. Package shape effects total storage space: boxes are fixed in which are unforgiving, bags are cram able, blisters can be flipped to stack into each other and take less space. Package layering, I'm not talking the combing of different items into a single package but a single item in multiple layers of equal worth packaging.  Now an excusable event of this is an outside layer being unlabeled to prevent product theft or undue dmg. Large package save on documents, problem comes when they get much larger...

Intro summery

There are many many things broken in the US legal and Economy fields, but the bulk of them are just symptoms and effects of a root cause.  Health care costs, food costs, internet costs, law enforcement responses and actions, government actions, crime, government assistance programs, general product costs, transportation costs...basically everything is effected by so little and surprisingly how little is truly at fault of such a large picture. This all started back with President Reagan.  Too many people have a short and narrow view and place blame on the most recent events, but in truth viewing the world like that will only hurt the world. The two things that are at the lead for being cause's to the vast number of problems is Corporate Greed and Executive Pay. Corporations trying to pull in as much profit as they can have turned to a method of doing so by any means even those that are illegal. This is just the top: under current legislation this is not entirely illegal...
