Ann...the Russians didn't have to increase military spending.
They already had 10,000 nuke missiles aimed at US.

Gorbachev is the only reason the U.S.S.R. broke apart. If a "hardliner" had been in there instead of Gorbachev, we'd STILL be in the cold war. Reagan could have spent a TRILLION a year on defense and it wouldn't have made ANY difference.

We spend 500 TIMES as much as N. Korea on the military, but I don't see THEM collapsing. We spend 15 TIMES as much as China on the military, but I don't see THEM collapsing.
