Probably. If I had to take a guess I’d say that a large part of our domestic economic success depends on the influence that our military buys with maintaining a certain global order abroad. Not just oil but other resources, stabilizing certain regions, insuring access to certain markets etc. If this is correct we’re going to have to fix our domestic economic model before there’s any hope of significant reductions in military spending. That’s probably very doubtful any time soon. For now it’s just a pipe dream.
