Here’s a quote I found interesting. I don’t know who the author is:

“If we cannot fix our 70,000 failing bridges and roads, and we have
millions of hungry kids and elderly folks, and we have no money to help
veterans and the disabled, and we have the most expensive healthcare
systems in the world, and almost anyone can be fired from his or her job
for any reason, BUT we have more than $800 billion for the very rich in
tax subsidies and breaks every year, and more than $600 billion for the
defense budget, then who the hell is our military protecting except the
very rich who are robbing us and the world every day?�
