Not really sure what you're saying here but it sounds like you're saying America is cash strapped. Which is absurd. But even if it was, the solution would be to take more money from the rich and spread it out more evenly...or like Charles suggests, spend less money on killing foreigners...
But again, really, this is absolutely not what America is about and it's unlikely it ever will be. The idea of America is about the opportunity for some to get filthy rich, not about everyone being moderately well off. That's why it's crazy successful, because it's liberal capitalism at its worst. And why it's one of the most unequal societies in the world.
But fair play, you want a different society, move to a different country with different ideals. Like Sweden, or Denmark or communist China.
