To counter the right-wing talking point: The combined military budgets of China and Russian, our two main adversaries, is around $180b. If we cut our military budget by 25%, the budget would still be over $550b, over TWICE as much as China and Russia combined.

If we can’t have a military that is better equipped, better trained and more highly motivated than China or Russia at “only” twice their budgets, adding more money to the budget will do nothing to fix that.

  9. tankerdood said: Just like a lib: Take from someone and give to someone else while claiming “it’s that simple”. Where’s all this money going to come from? A 10% tax on corporations wil only result in higher prices for the goods they sell. How about this: Clamp down on the corruption at every level of government; local, state, and especially federal. Then, use the savings generated to build a giant rainbow and we can all live happily ever after.
