If defence contractors would starve then you will soon be Russian bitches. You don't want that.
Army is one of the few things you cant skimp on.

Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.
Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

Source?
What source? Do you need a scientific publication saying that militarily weak countries tend to be conquered by aggressive neighbours?
Yes. We don't buy that the amount of money spent isn't a waste, it seems to us that it speaks to the amount of inefficiency in 'defense' spending and organisation. We genuinely believe that the money could be better spent elsewhere like in education and health.
You won't be permitted to learn under Russian occupation. 3 years of read-write-march at best.
