Coupled to this is the perennial issue of insufficient funds to pay for all the services the government is expected to provide, and at the level with which all are satisfied.

At the base of any argument concerning the issue of defence versus socio-economic upliftment, is the question of whether massive expenditure for defence in a peacetime environment is justifiable, seen in the light that many South Africans still do not have secure homes, access to acceptable education, medical facilities and potable water.
