Germany for example reached that 2% limit between the 1950s until 1992... and invented health care in 1883. GER is back at the 2% level this year, 2024, and will not suddenly cancel social welfare which is a human right in almost all European countries. Even Russia has social welfare programs... (and many African countries as well)... Heck, even Afghanistan has paid maternity leave. The fact that the US chooses to not have any of that... is on the US alone... Germany military expenditure in comparion to GDP: (reference: USA: 3,5%, 2022) (Russia: 4,1%, 2022) 1962 - 4,5% 1963 - 4,9% 1967 - 4,1% 1975 - 3,3% 1990 - 2,5% 2005 - 1,1% 2024 - 2% Also, Nato is not a thing that countries PAY money for or into. That's a lie that Trumpy told y'all... i cannot believe you fell for that. The estimated projection of the defence budget in 2024 is at around 68 BILLION Euros for Germany (#7 in the world). The majority of EU NATO countries will meet the 2% limit in 2024. The US chooses to spend 900 BILLION dollars on its military and doesn't care for maternity leave, or paid vacation or health care because they believe those are communist ideas. Health Care exists since the 1880s in some European countries - long before any country became a communist country.

They ve made it really clear they are against that.
