I despise the size of the US military, the size of the military budget, the corruption in the military-industrial complex, and so on. But it’s disingenuous to ignore how often, and how many places the military does show up to provide help to areas hit by things like national disasters. It’s one of the few things I do like about the military. I’m not even saying that it outweighs the damage done by US policy, just saying.
