It looks like Obama is cutting or wants to cut the military budget to save money:
Budget cuts to slash U.S. Army to smallest since before World War Two
I would agree with the cuts on the standpoint that we should be fixing ourselves and our economy before helping others out. Get out of all the other countries, and concentrate on ourselves. Unless every other country is buffing up their military, I don't see the harm in it; and I don't think anyone is going to attack us during this time.
I think we are in a bigger war now, an ECONOMIC war with other counties for jobs and such, and we're losing. We can't keep pissing away jobs like we are and think we'll be stable. manufacturing is all but gone, the reason why we got so rich was because after WWII, Europe was obliterated and we were free to make anything. Now it's not the case. Now the playing field is leveled and we need to take care of ourselves. I don't think any one will (or can) come and take over our country, so why no save some $$ by cutting the military budget...As long as they spend the saved money in the right places...
Do you think the military budget should be cut or do we need to find our savings elsewhere?
