Yeah why does the US spend so much money on its defense budget when so many Americans live in poverty.

The good old boy network likes to spend on the military.
That spending is what made the U.S. the biggest and most wasteful military in the world.
Then again, you have to remember that it is the rest of the world that gave the U.S. the power to push democracy against the other world systems of governance.
We wanted the world cop and bitching about them now is too late unless we are collectively ready to bring the U.S. to heel by having it pull back all of it's military power to it's own borders.
That will not likely happen as the democratic world want to maintain democracy.
Not that we really have a good model of one. We want to maintain our delusions of freedom.

Idk, other countries seem to increasingly reject US exports of democracy.

Bolshevik-:
I think they are rejecting the West more because of how we have pushed capitalism and not democracy.
You are correct if you see both capitalism and democracy as being hand in glove.
