A lot of people know that the US uses a lot of tax money on military budget so I think this is a good historical record of how that money was used by the government.

The US spent $60 billion rebuilding Iraq after the 2003 war. There is virtually nothing to show for the money. Most of the money seems to have been stolen by US defense contractors.

If say the medical/insurance healthcare cabal clean up far more than the defense does.

Wasn't that just what was intended. Help the massively "poor" defence contractors to sweep up easy pickings.
