I propose we get rid of 85% of our military budget.
Since that would never fly,I will settle out of court for a 65% reduction.

We can bring troops home from all 150 countries they are in, and concentrate on actual defense. Since we are more than adequately defended we can get by on 15% of what we spend.

If we have fewer troops we are 100% guaranteed to fight fewer wars. The all volunteer army is quite sufficient.
