Look, I'm in favor of controlling ALL spending, not just military spending. There are some practical things that will have to be addressed (over the next few years).Originally Posted by Tyrone Bigguns
-Cost effective replacements for the B-52 which is beyond ancient technology
-Replacements for the F-15 and F-16 which were started in the 1970s
and that's just for starters.
Reshaping how we fight future conflicts politically and militarily will greatly affect this. If we citizens do nothing re: staying informed on these topics and keeping on our Sens. and Reps. in DC then we deserve what happens to us. We can blame DC all we want regardless of who is in office. But if we as a nation have a passive approach on this and only get involved when it reaches crisis stage, then we have no one to pissed off at except ourselves.
