It's not too expensive - the US can easily afford $150B. We just have to decide that it's a priority and make it happen. Each year we some how find almost a trillion dollars for defense (more if you include "black budget") and no one blinks an eye.

I think the US is still stuck in the Cold War mentality of making military spending an “untouchable” cut. Meanwhile country infrastructure is falling apart and our equality gap is unprecedented. Sounds a lot like the USSR.
