I’m not against cutting military budget but many other things would have to come with it or before it. Huge cuts in entitlements are necessary. We are the only country where our poor people are fat because they can’t afford the DIET food… Which I find funny because most other countries find it troublesome to feed themselves, and we are trying to keep ourselves from feeding ourselves too much including our poor people. People pay to eat less…lol.

Honestly i think the military budget needs cutting and I’m in the military. We are wasting our resourcing getting in everyone’s business. Don’t forget, out of all the things our government spends money on the military is one of the few required by the constitution. Nowhere does it say the government is to PROVIDE everything for everyone, including cell phones, high speed internet, and health care.
