Even though China's military spending is much lower than the USA, there is more bang for the buck. This fact is quite instrumental, as there is so much corruption and siphoning of USA military spending that goes under the radar.
We have heard of US$600 toilet seat covers being supplied to the military. We have heard of bags of some kind of nuts and bolts costing the USA military US$90,000, that people on the streets can buy for US$100. Such is the kind of spending that the USA military is being clobbered by contractors.
The above are just two examples of the kind of rip-off that is ongoing in the USA military. What about the weapons and shells made for the military? I believe the same modus operandi of slaughtering is being carried out. Bombs are being charged to the military at prices that literally cost a 'bomb'. No wonder the cost of a reaper drone is about US$30 million. And its performance lags even a civilian drone made by DJI costing a couple of thousand dollars. And F35s are so expensive, costing upwards of US$110 million each. But no sweat, since those weapons are sold to countries around the world, who are paying through their noses.
So, the USA Government is blindly being ripped off by the likes of the military contractors and players. Life is so good for them that they want wars to be perpetual. And the Military Industrial Complex is a known component of the Deep State, with huge influence in Congress. It is a black hole with the Pentagon unable to explain for the US$ trillions that could not be accounted for.

Good morning All
Not forgetting the Corrupted Accomplices of the World's PeeAyams and Defence Ministers and Chief of Military Staffs.
The UAssA CON-gress Men and Women and also their Senile-Nators charades their BS Approvals of their Sale of their Arsenals to those saliva dripping countries that are also in collaborations with them.
Only their daft Beans are all in the Dark.
All their jackup kickbacks and kopi monies in their pockets and banks.
That's why some even held their appointments as PeeAyam and also Defence Minister.
Fine example that Nasib aka Good Luck.
Even China's Defence and Chief of Staffs also been investigated.
Supposedly all these procurement are Top Secrets and Confidential that the BEST for ahem ahem.
Millions and Billions in their pockets and Banks.
When we point finger at American military related issues, we also must remember that the player involved in this game also include those other countries that did the purchase, namely Taiwan & Sinagpore.
It takes two paws to clap.
