What's the problem with that? Is there not 6.7% of waste or useless items in the annual defense budget to be cut?
If only ALL other federal spending could be cut 6.7% (at least) as well!
I agree. The word “gut” is thrown around quite lightly. The DoD has as much waste and fraud and abuse as anyone, and i wouldn’t consider a 6.7% reduction a “gutting”.
Personally, I’d love to see us reduce our expenditures in overseas bases (specifically Europe). Its time for them to pay for their OWN defense.
Ditto.
Right mo’ cash to blow on stealth reparations, welfare, student lunches and dinners and breakfasts at schools, mo cash to blow on Moochelles pet programs.
More cash to blow on green energy boondoggles. More cash for the EPA to blow on harassing our energy sector. More cash to spend hiring more affirmative action Federal workers to do nothing useful all day. Dittos for the non-AA hires
