Is anyone surprised?
Military?
Better to spend military money on takers
more of the bastards and they ALL vote dem.
More money to spend on their “Just as well funded national security force”......
You know shift some of the millitary budget over until they are equal comrade...
This president is GIVING the USA to our enemies...he is a traitor to the Constitution and should be impeached immediately.
We need to maintain our strategic defenses, naval and air to keep foreign dangers at arm's length. And we need to pay the military people what they earned and we promised. But a permanent large army and its missions are totally against our founding principles that conservatives should want to maintain. I hope one day to see our army back to the small size our Founders envisioned.
"The means of defence against foreign danger, have been always the instruments of tyranny at home. Among the Romans it was a standing maxim to excite a war, whenever a revolt was apprehended. Throughout all Europe, the armies kept up under the pretext of defending, have enslaved the people." -James Madison
Nope!!!
If the Congress agrees it’s on them.
They stuff defense spending all the time
Obama Regime wants to roll back our military troops levels to what they were prior to the outbreak of WWll, even though our military has been targeted for all manner of cuts for the past 5 years and our national Security has been repeated compromised.
I have a much better idea and one that will show support for the 10th Amendment to our Constitution.
Let us scale back the size and scope of the Federal Government to the same levels that Obama wants for our military.
I think our entire nation would be much better off.
Aside from the fact it won’t happen because Congress won’t allow it (for now), we are seeing the classic guns versus butter battle that great powers face when they are in decline. The welfare state (butter) demands more and more resources and the politicians will eventually cave by reducing defense spending because butter has more constituents.
So what are you going to do about it. It’s all about more free stuff and those politicians handing out more free stuff to those who do no work are going to win - at least until someone stands up to them and sends them packing.
All while DHS grows in size. Priorities of a police state.
Just another step on 0bama’s path to gut the military, destroy America, and become dictator for life ( why did he redesign the presidential seal to remove the words “Seal of the President of The United States” - he knows he’s not president, but intends to remain in power as dictator.)
FIFY.
We cannot continue taxing Americans to defend the world. We need to seriously reassess our relationships to determine who are our friends and who are our parasites. We are being lead by the least able representatives in ten generations.
