I didn't say "What?" because I was offended, I just didn't understand what you were saying. Thank you for clarifying your viewpoint. Although as you have already pointed out the United States is not a country that would be associated with militarism. The military is not of primary importance to our state. We spend 3.2% of our GDP on our military. Where as North Korea spends 33.9% of their GDP on military. So you could call North Korea a militarist state, but not the United States.
