No you weren’t, you were linking to a shitty website with false data. You were the one duped by lies and propaganda.
And yes, the 12% is still too high, the US doesn’t need to spend nearly that much on the military. But they aren’t spending 50+%, that was just a lie, from a shitty website that fooled you.
No, they are capitalist owned. if they were communist the people would own them.
And that graph is completely inaccurate. here is the budget actual from 2015:

Notice how military spending is 631 billion out of 3.89 trillion, which is about 16%.
And the budget from 2022 had an even lower percentage of military spending:

What companies are making those weapons and arms used in wars? Private companies, paid for with tax dollars.
Also, only 12% of the US federal budget went to the military in 2022. Social Security, Healthcare, and Welfare were all bigger parts of US federal spending, with medicare just being behind military spending.

And who exactly runs that crap site you posted?
