Grimdark Economics: The Price of the Imperium's Military

In this video I want to breakdown the Grimdark-industrial-economic-complex. It's impossible to figure out exactly how much the Imperium spends on it's military. But I want to give as much real world context as I can. Also, there will be a nice lesson on the Irish military economy in there too! - of Course!!!
