None of what you said has anything to do with government though. Also, please explain how corporations are tied in with government spending. Corporations are not nearly as evil, nor powerful as scared people make them out to be.
The thing about our interests overseas we are not getting money from them. The Iraq war was touted by the left as a war for oil, did the US get oil? Nope. Companies based in the US got some? Kinda. Most of the money stayed overseas. We do not create money producing interests overseas.
