$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Serial_Worrier', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('TITAN', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Cog', 'P')rogressives never think its a spending problem.


Clearly it is a spending problem. The fact that we spend 1.5 trillion a year on defense is the number 1 issue.

Cut that in half (or more) and we'll be fine. I really don't think those 54 big bad terrorists from Afghanistan are gonna come over and get us anytime soon... (yes, that is the approximate number of 'terrorists' left that we spend 8 billion a month on...)


Cite? Defense spending is about $700 billion right now.


i was adding the amount spent on veterans and pensions/military retirees, which is an amount equally ridiculous.
