    Yeah, if we lived in one of those we’d have ballooning military spend at the expense of everything else, even during times of peace. And defense contractors would be getting paid money hand over fist to make and deliver products that are defective. And the police would be becoming excessively militarized themselves, such as being equipped with military equipment. And the country would be going heavily right wing.

      Gee, I wonder what else the provisions of all that recent anti-trans legislation that criminalized leaving the state for getting medical treatment could also apply to.
