Russia has the ability to develop and procure advanced weaponry.

Why? Becuase they do not spend $1 trillion plus on social welfare like we do every year.

Russia and China are developing advanced strategic weapons--we are not.

I hear ya, your right, not only that ? the libs want us to enter treaties that will weaken our resolve, and military strength.

Buh wuh!?!?! Libby Whiners tell me we need no missile defense.

I would make it " MANDATORY " to make the military budget 700 Billion a year, use part of that money for border control, erect a duel wall as high as 40 feet on both borders ( even if it has to cost a billion a piece.
Track down ( ALL ILLEAGLLS ALLIENS ) in this country a have them deported, cut the social programs that the illegals feed off of.
Invest massive funds for ( R&D ) and make sure our military is the best funded, most technically advanced in the world.
Give our troops and personal expensive they deserve.
Yes, there are ( wasteful programs ) in our Government budget that can, and should be cut.

A more important part of the reason why Russia and China can develop these new systems is that they massively underfund the rest of their militaries.

The SS-18 ICBMs are to be decommissioned since they are MIRV'd.
