The new ~$850 billion defense budget would direct billions of taxpayer dollars to private contractors.

Let's call this what it is: a massive redistribution of wealth to the military-industrial complex.

Wealth distribution is only bad when it goes from those with too much money to those without enough money. Robbing from the poor to give to the rich is good for the poor. We all know that.
