With all due candor- If I follow your simplistic and naive logic THEN- Human beings / population is in the same boat too... you( china) have more mouths to feed , thus your money gets used up feeding your enormous population! and your communist regime has a bigger budget to spend on propaganda machines and things like blocking SKYPE and the internet that the US does not bother with..guy, military infrastructures all over the world is not a asset,but a obligation.
here is a simple caculation:
the more military infrastructures are ,the more to maintain them costs!
the more the maintainance costs, the less fund are distributed to the upgrade of arm force !
Always, the title of "global policeman" means not only glory,but expensive obligations that cost trillions of USD and soilder's life.
China has much less oversea military bases and obligations than Yankees. it just means that China can concentrate more fund on upgrade,instead of uselss oversea adventure and stripteaser bars aroud oversea miltiary bases.
