      Turns out it does not. 50% of stolen money (tax revenue) is used to murder people around the world.

        What companies are making those weapons and arms used in wars? Private companies, paid for with tax dollars.

        Also, only 12% of the US federal budget went to the military in 2022. Social Security, Healthcare, and Welfare were all bigger parts of US federal spending, with medicare just being behind military spending.
