How much did the military spend yesterday? $2.4 billion

<center>http://geke.us/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/DefenseSpending.001.png</center>


BAE has hit the billion dollar mark for September. A little bit about them: BAE is a British aerospace, arms, and IT company. I did a <a href=”https://steemit.com/corporatism/@geke/gekevenn-bae“>write-up</a> on them last year, including the venn diagram below.

The most important thing to know about this company, that's siphoning over a billion of our tax dollars this month alone, is that nine years ago, BAE was convicted of defrauding the US government. Their punishment? A measly $400 million fine. They earn more than that from us, as we can see here, in just a few weeks.

Yesterday's breakdown:

BAE: $514,746,995 (2 modifications)
Boeing: $156,911,600 (1 modification)
Booz Allen Hamilton: --
General Dynamics: $13,751,564 (1 modification)
Lockheed Martin: $9,750,000 (1 contract)
Northrop Grumman: $11,000,000 (1 contract)
Raytheon: $13,557,150 (1 contract)

September to-date totals:

BAE: $1,138,948,569
Boeing: $310,727,515
Booz Allen Hamilton: $286,765,526
General Dynamics: $342,215,633
Lockheed Martin: $506,630,935
Northrop Grumman: $138,139,175
Raytheon: $598,840,143

<h6>*This information is provided to highlight just how much taxpayer money is spent, per day, to enrich companies participating in the military industrial complex. The idea that our economy requires a governmental redistribution of wealth from individual taxpayers to large corporations that are friendly and well-connected to government came from the Keynesian argument for demand “stimulus” -- that our economy's health depends on higher and higher levels of spending. For this reason, personal saving is discouraged and often penalized by the government. But because individuals still tend to follow personal incentives to save, the Keynesian argument remains in effect: that government should spend money the public is reluctant to spend through tax-and-spend policies.*</h6>

That is a fairly big overlap between the people working for America and for England, AKA treason, espionage, etc, it seems.

Yes, and although I'm an open-borders ancap who would prefer that free trade took place ***everywhere***, the posturing between these competing/colluding nations, all for the sake of military keynesianism, is sickening.
