When you're comparing a country that spends BILLIONS on defense an everything related to that, are you surprised that you could obliterate everything? Imagine all the good that could come out of even 1/4 of that money if it went into something more constructive... Like education (you could probably send every kid to university with that), health (you could easily provide free national healthcare for a fraction of that money).

But no, get better at killing people, that solves lots of problems, right?
