Certainly, Republicans do not agree whether we should cut the defense budget. I think we should. But many good freepers here don’t.

Most think that defense is job number one.

Everyone assumes Defense budget cuts will 1) affect service members pay, 2) decrease readiness 3) prohibit our forces from having the best equipment.

I don’t believe this is the case.

Like every other thing the government touches, Defense spending has a lot of fraud involved. Attack the fraud and you will save a lot of money. Fraud I am talking about isn’t by your average military member, it is at the contract level.
