We have 800,000 civilian government employees in the Department of Defense. How many of them have gone to Iraq or Afghanistan for a year or three out of five years? The Military-Industrial Complex isn’t uniformed personnel. Take her off the cliff, boys!

I see we have a Freeper here using the left's favorite term "Military Industrial Complex", first coined by Eisenhower.

When Eisenhower first used the phrase, Military spending as a percentage of GDP was greater than 10%. Now it's down below 5%. I believe that's a 72 year low.

Meanwhile all other types of goverment spending have gone through the roof.

Isn't that cool.
