    It’s not an opinion that providing weapons is cheaper than providing soldiers. And it’s certainly not an opinion about the merits of being involved in the first place.

    Factually, if you’re going to be involved, weapons are cheaper than boots. That’s it. I don’t like being involved at all.

      The way how your comment was phrased, it look like you were saying the bulk of US military spending is on veteran care, which would be an absurd claim.
