Not true. The Trump administration has increased the military budget. https://foreignpolicy.com/2019/03/10/pentagon-eyes-windfall-... No one is asking "you" to be world police. Just paying "your" UN membership fees would be plenty.

Are there more of fewer involvements we’re in?

Increasing budget can mean active wars or it can mean preparation (modernizing).

The UN is a political org, it doesn’t achieve much. It makes a whole bunch of corrupt officials rich.
