The military is only one of four things that have to be addressed. We've seen that gutting social spending and increasing military spending is a disaster, inverting that just changes the disaster and not the actual problem. All of them have to be addressed at once.
I dunno. I was just asking, since these missives are entirely pointless because the Democrats know you'll vote for them anyway. That's sort of how it works. Like with the GOP and abortion or whatever. They don't care. Vote for us, because you hate the other side.
There was a very cool piece I read the other day that talked about the history of liberals in the Democratic party and how few of them are really around anymore-- particularly the ones with the late 1960s/early 1970s variation of liberalism, but meanwhile, conservatism from that same period has plenty of standard bearers in the Republican party, and the moderate and liberal wing of the Republicans are pretty much extinct. So it's harder now for progressives in the Democratic party to run a real challenge to a more moderate one: i.e. you'd never have another situation where a Robert Kennedy could basically prevent the sitting president from seeking another term from his own party (cf. Lyndon Johnson to Barak Obama).
I don't use talking points. This is all my own opinion. Don't be confused. I don't think government spending doesn't need to be cut. I'm saying ALL Americans need to pay. Corporations as well Such as G.E. who paid no taxes last year. I say pass the hat and EVERYONE pays.
Not so much a solution as it is a call for fairness, eh?
I didn't read your comments as a quick fix like the above poster seemed to. Also don't you agree using the so-called 'war' over the past 10 years is a poor excuse for explaining why the deficit is so high?
