US military spending is roughly $2.5 billion a day.
Putting the whole yadayadayada the govt budget is broke part of your comment, you are aware that you are comparing the means for the US to remain thr worlds only super power for decade after decade... to something that can pretend to talk like a person. As much as it goes against every other opinion i hold, in this exact co parison between two options to recieve financing, yes i would choose to keep the defense budget over the google budget 100% of the time.
Clearly the super power thing isn‘t working anymore so why bother spending that much on it?
