The West is also lying again about the defence budget.
For example, American highways were made by the U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower using the defense budget.
The other day, the U.S. demanded that Western European countries increase their military budgets.
And, now, Western European countries are responding to America's demand.
But those budgets will include public works.
American highways are very famous, but in fact, they are military roads juridically, and they were built after World War II.
The U.S. has increased car imports and lost its heavy industry.
Now, the U.S. is trying to revive its heavy industry under the pretext of national security.
From the point of view of the U.S., it now turns out that not building highways would have been better in terms of national defense.
Therefore, the U.S. is an idiot.

Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal-Aid_Highway_Act_of_1956
The Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956, also known as the National Interstate and Defense Highways Act, Pub. L. 84–627 was enacted on June 29, 1956, when President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed the bill into law.
With an original authorization of $25 billion (equivalent to $215 billion in 2024) for the construction of 41,000 miles (66,000 km) of the Interstate Highway System over a 10-year period, it was the largest public works project in American history through that time.
The addition of the term defense in the act's title was because some of the original cost was diverted from defense funds and "because of [the Interstate Highway System']s primary importance to the national defense".
The money for the Interstate Highway and Defense Highways was handled in a Highway Trust Fund that paid for 90 percent of highway construction costs with the states required to pay the remaining 10 percent.
It was expected that the money would be generated through new taxes on fuel, automobiles, trucks, and tires.
As a matter of practice, the federal portion of the cost of the Interstate Highway System has been paid for by taxes on gasoline and diesel fuel.

Transcontinental Motor Convoy
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcontinental_Motor_Convoy
The Transcontinental Motor Convoys were early 20th century vehicle convoys, including three US Army truck trains, that crossed the United States (one was coast-to-coast) to the west coast.
The 1919 Motor Transport Corps convoy from Washington, D.C., to San Francisco used the incomplete Lincoln Highway.

米国の高速道路は、米国の大統領ドワイト・アイゼンハワーにより、国防予算を使って建設された。
西側は、またもや、国防予算についても嘘をついている。
例えば、米国の高速道路は、米国の大統領ドワイト・アイゼンハワーにより、国防予算を使って建設された。
米国は西欧諸国に軍事費を増やすように要求した。
そして今、西欧諸国は米国の要求に応えつつある。
しかし、これらの予算には公共事業が含まれている。
米国の高速道路は非常に有名だが、それらは法的には軍用道路であり、第2次大戦後に建築されたものだ。
米国は自動車の輸入が増え、重工業がなくなった。
いま、米国は、安全保障を口実に、重工業を復活させようとしている。
米国の観点からすると、今となっては、高速道路を作らなかった方が、国防上は正しかったということになる。
したがって、米国はバカである。

連邦補助高速道路法

連邦補助高速道路法(れんぽうほじょこうそくどうろほう、Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956)は、1956年6月29日に施行されたアメリカ合衆国の法律であり、一般に全米州間国防高速道路法(ぜんべいしゅうかんこくぼうこうそくどうろほう、National Interstate and Defense Highways Act)と呼ばれる。
これは当時のアイゼンハワー大統領が推進した道路整備計画の一環として制定された法律であり、全長約6万5000キロメートルの巨大な州間高速道路網を、250億ドルの資金を投じて、10年の期間を費やして整備するという、それまでのアメリカ合衆国の歴史の中で最も大規模な国家プロジェクトであった。
州間高速道路
https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%B7%9E%E9%96%93%E9%AB%98%E9%80%9F%E9%81%93%E8%B7%AF
州間高速道路(しゅうかんこうそくどうろ、英: Interstate Highway インターステート・ハイウェイ)は、アメリカ合衆国の高速道路である。
高速道路網全体としては、一般には州間高速道路網(しゅうかんこうそくどうろもう、Interstate Highway System)と呼ばれ、正式名称はドワイト・デーヴィッド・アイゼンハワー全米州間国防高速道路網(ぜんべいしゅうかんこくぼうこうそくどうろもう、Dwight David Eisenhower National System of Interstate and Defense Highways)である。
戦時中、全米を車で横断するのに二ヶ月を要していたことをアイゼンハワーは体感していた。州間高速道路網は、1956年の連邦補助高速道路法の制定により整備が開始された。この法律は、当時のアイゼンハワー大統領が推進した道路整備計画の一環として制定された法律であり、全長約6万5000キロメートルの巨大な州間高速道路網を、250億ドルの資金を投じて、10年の期間を費やして整備するという、それまでのアメリカ合衆国の歴史の中で最も大規模な国家プロジェクトであった。
