But in your view thats OK,lets just cut everything else. I do love your choice of presidents,all Dems,what a surprise. There's that narrow minded thought process again. By the way please don't forget what REPUBLICAN president Eisenhower said about the military industrial complex. You should look it up widen your range of ideas.

Well, except for the 2001 attack, there has been no fighting on American soil. Score one for defense spending. How about the war on poverty that we are still paying? How has that helped America? It has made a whole new industry of parasites feeding on our taxes. We now have about 50 million people receiving food stamps. OH. You cannot say that anymore. They have food credit cards so they can have self respect when they purchase their steaks and junk food.
The democrats have diluted the education system to the point that companies must import good employees. Department of education? What a waste of funds. How about the department of energy? Another boondoggle.
No thanks, I'll keep the defense spending.
