[Colonel Kangaroo]

If you cut the fed labor force by half (excluding military)

We can cut the military down greatly also. Our armed forces serve to subsidize the welfare states of our allies all over the globe. The nation will not long accept defending nations who have more robust social safety nets than we have.

“We can cut the military down greatly also”

I would start with a 50% cut on all flag officers. Then work on useless departments such as the trans-gender integration office (or whatever it is called).
