all taxpayers are donors to the unwanted war

"the point of public relations slogans like support our troops is that they don't mean anything... you don't want people to think about the issue, that's the whole point of good propaganda..." - Noam Chomsky https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7DdWmWUa_8

%40 of the US federal budget goes to the military.

Beyond that broad number what do the charities do and how much of the donation goes to the things that impact troops' lives. Most charities have a dismal percentage of the money going to their cause.
