I'm not sure how paying for a bloated military would have stopped 9/11.Clinton did it by drastic cuts to the military to cover social service expansion.
National defense is a mandate of the Federal government (see the Constitution), not social services.
Clinton left us set-up for 9-11 and our military short on spare parts, munitions, equipment operational, and other deficiencies that had to be corrected for response to Islamic Jihad threats.
BTW, Bush(II) wasn't even in office before 9-11 happened. The perps for that were ones Clinton should have dealt with and prevented from getting here and doing what they did.
They carried that out with box cutters and flight lessons.
Bush pissed away Trillions on wars, and Islamic Jihadists haven't gone away, imagine that.
Bullshit. Most of those things were only done by the private sector because the public sector was willing to pay for it.Government had little to do with that. In fact government often blocked or delayed that 'evolution'.
Almost all of the 'modern state' is result of free enterprise, seeking efficiency to operate more profitably.
It's why you don't see private roads stretching across the country.
