That was the thrust of what I was replying to people whoi claim to be tea party types and want to cut DOD. Cutting DOD is a very bad move.
I’m sorry but we have a series of bad choices ahead of us. The alternatives are worse choices. If we don’t get our debt under control in the next three to five years, sooner if interest rates spike, we will only have the military our debt holders think we should have.
No one is saying that we should gut the military but nothing can be sacred either.
You don’t think there is waste in DOD?
