We can afford any amount for all kinds of aids to all kinds of nations, friendly and not but we cannot afford to send our children out in safety? Perhaps this is being frugal.

If this is a Rummy imposed frugality I AM in favor of ditching him as untrustworthy. One wonders whether an Army
can be run like a Corporation when lives are at stake. Course if the lives do not include your own progeny or those of your friends who is to care?
