What it does change is that the availability of the money and the military machine are linked. It's not just that American taxpayers are footing the bill; it's that our military machine is funded by tribute, which we pretend is "debt" that we're totally going to pay back one day. It's one system.
To be clear, it's bad. I hate it. I just think it's important to understand how the thing we oppose works.
