    Just like the good old days of the Kaiser, it worked really well for us in the end.
    That's why I brought Germany up. It ranks 6th in the world in military spending with 1.3% of its GDP devoted to it and could easily be third if it bumped GDP up to the 2.4% French and British levels. And the 1994 ruling stretched the definition of 'defense' almost as far as the US has.
