Avo Vanoitira Vakafa Vakafa:

Vakakuvadzwa uye vakashungurudzika uye vasina pekugara vese vakapfuura zvakanyanya vakafa.

Mari Dzemari:

Mari yakanangana nehondo, iyo yakarasika mikana, kuparadzwa, ramangwana rehutano hwehutano, kuendesa hupfumi kune vakapfuma, uye mutengo unoramba uripo webhajeti remauto zvakakurisa kuti uropi hwemunhu hwufunge.

Pakati pa2001 na2020, sekureva kwa Mashoko okuti SIPRI, US yekushandisa mari muchiuto yaive seinotevera (pamwe neMutungamiri Biden neCongress vachida kuwedzera muna 2021):

Vaongorori vane anga nguva dzose kuudza isu kwemakore izvozvi kuti kune mamwe madhora mazana mashanu emabhiriyoni kana zvakadaro asiri kuverengwa mune imwe neimwe yenhamba idzi. Mamwe madhora mazana maviri emadhora kana akapararira pamadhipatimendi mazhinji, pamwe nemasangano epachivande, asi zviri pachena mashandisirwo ehondo, kusanganisira mari yekurwira mahara uye kudzidzisa mauto ehurumende dzekunze dzine hutsinye. Imwe $ 500 kusvika kumadhora mazana maviri emadhora kana zvakadaro kubhadhara chikwereti chemari yapfuura yemauto. Iyo imwe $ 200 bhiriyoni kana kupfuura ndiyo mutengo wekutarisira veterans; uye, nepo nyika zhinji dzakapfuma dzichipa hutano hwakakwana kune wese munhu, vaive US kuti vaite - ruzhinji rwevanhu vanofarirwa neUS - chokwadi chingangoramba chiri chekuti kuchengetwa kweveterans kunoitwa zvakanyanya kudhura nekukuvara kwavo muhondo. Uye zvakare, izvo zvinodhura zvinogona kuenderera kwemakumi akati emakore mushure mehondo.

Huwandu hwenhamba chete kubva kuSIPRI pamusoro, iyo isingasanganisi 2021, i $ 14,259,051,000,000. Ndiyo $ 14 tiririyoni, iine T.

Dai isu taizotora mamwe madhora mazana mashanu emabhiriyoni pagore ndokudaidza kuti $ 500 bhiriyoni kuti igare yakachengeteka, uye tichiiwanza nemakore makumi maviri, ingangove iri yekuwedzera $ 400 tiririyoni, kana hombe hombe yemadhora zviuru makumi maviri nezviviri yakashandiswa kusvika parizvino.

Iwe uchaverenga mishumo ichizivisa mutengo wehondo dzemakore ano kuve chimwe chidimbu cheiyo, senge $ 6 trillion, asi izvi zvinoitwa nekugadzirisa mari zhinji yemauto, kuitora senge imwe nzira yechimwe chinhu kunze kwehondo.

Maererano kuverenga yevashandi vehupfumi, mari yakadyarwa mudzidzo (kutora muenzaniso mumwe wezvikamu zvinoverengeka) inogadzira 138.4 muzana semabasa mazhinji sekudyara mari imwe chete muchiuto. Nekudaro, zvakaringana mune zvehupfumi mamiriro, mabhenefiti ekuita chimwe chinhu chine hungwaru ne $ 22 trillion akakosha kudarika kungoita $ 22 tiririyoni.

Beyond economics iri chokwadi chekuti isingasvike 3 muzana yemari iyi ingadai yakagumisa nzara pasi uye zvishoma pamusoro pe1 muzana yaigona kupedza kushaikwa kwemvura yekunwa yakachena pasi pano. Uku kungo kukwenya pamusoro pemitengo yemubhadharo, izvo zvakauraya zvakawanda nekusashandiswa zvine mutsindo pane kungoshandiswa muhondo.
