Akā ʻo mākou ka poʻe kūʻē i ka huhū e haʻalele i nā kaua i kāohi ʻia, pau nā kaua, kū nā kumu, kū nā mea kaua, lawe ʻia ke kālā mai nā mea kaua, nā mākaʻi demilitarized, nā poʻe i aʻo ʻia, aʻo mākou iā mākou iho, a me nā pono hana i hana ʻia e hāpai i kēia mau mea āpau.

E nānā i kekahi o nā helu helu.

Nā Kaua:

ʻO nā kaua i hoʻohana i ka "kaua i ka weliweli," a ʻo ka maʻamau ka 2001 AUMF, ma ke ʻano he kala i hoʻokomo ʻia nā kaua ma Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Libya, Somalia, Syria, Yemen, Philippines, a me nā hana koa e pili pū ana ma Georgia, Cuba, Djibouti, Kenya, ʻAitiopa, Eritrea, Turkey, Niger, Cameroon, Jordan, Lebanona , Haiti, Lepupalika Kemokalaka ʻo Kongo, Uganda, Lepupalika ʻApelika Waena, Mali, Burkina Faso, Chad, Mauritania, Nigeria, Tunisia, a me nā moana like ʻole.

I kēia mau helu hiki ke hoʻohui ʻia i 0.007 miliona mau make hou aʻe o nā pūʻali koa US, kahi kiʻi i komo ʻole me nā mea mālama kālā a i ʻole suicides.

ʻO 5.917 miliona ka huina nui, me nā pūʻali koa US e hana ana i 0.1% o nā make (a me kekahi 95% o ka pāpāho).

ʻO ka poʻe ʻenemi i ka poʻe make:

Ua ʻoi aku ka nui o ka poʻe make i ka poʻe ʻeha a ʻeha a me nā home ʻole.

Nā Kālā Kālā:

ʻO ke kumukūʻai pololei o ka militarism, nā manawa nalowale, ka luku ʻana, nā koina mālama ola e hiki mai ana, ka hoʻoili waiwai ʻana i ka poʻe waiwai, a me ka uku mau o ka pūʻali koa no ka ʻike ʻana o ka lolo kanaka.

Ma waena o 2001 a 2020, e like me SIPRI, ʻO ka lilo ʻana o ka pūʻali koa US pēlā (me Pelekikena Biden a me ka ʻAhaʻōlelo e manaʻo ana e hoʻonui i 2021):

Loaʻa i nā loiloi i aia mau haʻi iā mākou no nā makahiki i kēia manawa aia kekahi $ 500 biliona a i ʻole ʻaʻole e helu ʻia i kēlā me kēia helu. Hoʻolahalaha ʻia he $ 200 biliona a ʻoi paha i nā keʻena he nui, a me nā keʻena huna, akā maopopo nā lilo o ka pūʻali koa, e like me ka uku o ka lako ʻana no ka manuahi a me ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana i ka pūʻali koa o nā aupuni haole ʻino. ʻO kekahi $ 100 a $ 200 biliona a ʻoi paha ka uku ʻaiʻē no nā lilo o ka pūʻali koa i hala. ʻO ka $ 100 biliona a ʻoi aku paha ke kumu kūʻai o ka mālama ʻana i nā kūpuna; a ʻoiai ka hapanui o nā lāhui waiwai i hoʻolako i ke olakino olakino i kēlā me kēia, ʻo ia ka US e hana i kēlā - ma ke ʻano he hapa nui o ka poʻe ma ka ʻaoʻao US - ʻo ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ka mea e mālama nui ʻia nā mea koa i ko lākou hōʻeha kaua. Eia hou, hiki ke hoʻomau i kēlā mau kumukūʻai no nā makahiki he nui ma hope o nā kaua.

ʻO ka huina o nā helu wale nō mai SIPRI i luna, ʻaʻole i hui pū ʻia me 2021, he $ 14,259,051,000,000. ʻO ia $ 14 trillion, me kahi T.

Inā mākou e lawe i keu $ 500 biliona i kēlā me kēia makahiki a kāhea iā ia he $ 400 biliona e palekana, a hoʻonui ʻia e 20 mau makahiki, he $ 8 trillion hou ia, a i ʻole ka huina nui o $ 22 trillion i lilo i kēia manawa.

E heluhelu ʻoe i nā hōʻike e hōʻike ana i ke kumukūʻai o nā kaua o kēia mau makahiki i kekahi hapa o kēlā, e like me $ 6 trillion, akā hoʻokō ʻia kēia e ka normalizing nui ʻana o ka lilo ʻana o ka pūʻali koa, mālama iā ia ma kekahi ʻano ʻē aʻe ma mua o nā kaua.

E like me ka nā helu o nā economists, kālā i hoʻopukapuka ʻia i ke aʻo (e lawe i hoʻokahi laʻana o ka nui o nā ʻāpana i manaʻo ʻia) hana he 138.4 pakeneka a nui nā hana e like me ka hoʻopukapuka ʻana i ke kālā like i ka militarism. No laila, ma ke ʻano ʻekekema wale nō, nā pōmaikaʻi o ka hana ʻana i kahi mea ʻoi aku ke akamai me ka $ 22 trillion ma mua o $ 22 trillion wale nō.

Ma mua o ka ʻekekema ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ma lalo o 3 pākēneka o kēia kālā i hiki ke hoʻopau i ka wī ma ka honua a ʻoi iki ma kahi o 1 pākēneka hiki ke hoʻopau i ka nele o ka wai inu maʻemaʻe ma ka honua. ʻO ka wili wale ʻana ia i ka ʻili o nā koina o ka hoʻolilo kālā ʻana, ka mea i pepehi he nui aku i ka hoʻohana ʻole ʻia ʻana ma mua o ka lilo ʻana i ke kaua.
