What if 50% the energy/money that went into creating fleets of tanks, warships, and aircraft, went into... lets say... R&D for fusion and Geo-thermal energy, or transit, or basically anything thats purpose is not destruction and waste. Think about when a fighter crashes... that is like 150 Mil (F-22). 150 million... is A LOT of money.

50%??? Try 10%, if a fraction of the money spent on "defence" was spent on space we'd have motels on Europa or Titan by now.

I weep for the wasted resources.

But on the other hand, it was probably the invention of weapons that drove humanity to walk upright all the time and gave us our proclivity for advanced mathematics.
