It's being happy the other got their fill even though you might be left a little hungry, or being happy for someone's growth even though it means they may leave you behind.
That frees up $15,000 per year for every US citizen between 18 and 22 years of age, and we'll still be spending many times what any other country on the planet spends. I'm not advocating less support for troops, I'm advocating a less aggressive position in the world. The reality is we can't afford what we're currently doing and it's a large part of why we're falling behind the rest of the developed world.
If we also stop building professional sports stadiums with tax dollars,
we could problem send them all to med school.
...and we additionally stop over incarcerating our population,
we could probably educate an entire generation of neurosurgeons.
The money's there, it all in the priorities.
The math on the first claim...20 million people 18 to 22 in the US.
Defense budget(not including veterans benefits btw)...$600 billion.
Half of $600 billion is $300 billion.
$300 billion divided by 20 million is...$15,000
At $300 we'd still be spending 2.5 times what the next biggest spender on the planets does.

RE: What is love and how do you describe love to someone???
I agree.It's being happy the other got their fill even though you might be left a little hungry, or being happy for someone's growth even though it means they may leave you behind.
