Were it 90% of what Pentagon did, the rest of the world bar China and India would be US territories.

Being corrupt does not get you territories. I just makes you waste money on never ending conflicts so that private contractors can get richer.

Being 90% corrupt gives you more territories than being 99% corrupt
