>Turns out that Europe's 5% GDP multi-trillion rearmament was actually just subsidies to the American MIC again.
How are you surprised?
Not only is it obvious for political reasons, NATO being a vassalage...
You also have it in the requirement: Spend XX% of GDP on the military
Not "have this or that amount of soldiers with X endurance and capability level Y".
Only requirement is to have US compliant weapon systems (NATO standard) and spend a certain amount of money on it.
Then add the political pressure to buy muttmerican, blackmail and bribery and it's pretty obvious what the result will be. The US can always out bribe and out pressure local producers, Germany, Sweden or Italy... so you buy American.
Because in the end, the only requirement is that you spend your money, not that you get anything for it.
