15 Jan Should the government increase or decrease military spending?
Military spending has risen substantially over the past decades.
Those in favor believe the military should continue to be strengthened for a stronger nation.
Critics predict more wars and bankruptcy if the trend continues.
You have served the country in adverse times using your nerves of steel.
What are your thoughts? Do you support the increase of military spending?
Today is the day. Now is the moment. Vote for change.

Posted at 12:55h, 29 MayInteresting question. Unfortunately our government knows only one way to face a problem. That is, throwing money and people at it. IF, properly managed, our forces would be just as effective and more efficient. American society is based on waste and the military is a prime example of poor management. Therefore I say reduce spending. Force responsible/smart spending, maintain our lethality and save taxpayers money. Don’t move the money from one hand to another, force positive change and you may have what you want that was mentioned above. MAGA.

Posted at 21:23h, 25 MayYes, Trump is good for America! I am a Veteran and small business owner. Trump has done more for Veterans and small businesses in his first term than Obama did in both terms. There are more jobs now! That in itself is extremely great for America. When Obama was building the Wall, the democrats didn’t say anything! They wrote that check quickly. But since Trump is wanting to finish what Obama started, they want to be stupid! Only the democrats are causing America harm. This is still a free country! So, my advise to them is if you don’t like what he is doing, you can move somewhere else.

Posted at 00:21h, 24 AprilThe only purpose for the Central Government was the security of the Nation and it has been expanded over the years to be a welfare organization. I do not accept the premise of Social Security and Medicare as welfare. I have paid into SSN since I was 13 years old and went to work for an Insurance company. Most Americans with legitimate SSNs have earned their benefits by having jobs and contributing to the fund for their entire life. I support a strong military and want it to be the BEST in the WORLD. Any” gimme” programs should be ended.

Posted at 01:17h, 13 FebruaryI feel that the military should have all of the funds that it needs to complete their missions. Of course I also believe that the politicians should not have the final say so in how the military handles their issues. Otherwise we will end up with another Vietnam where they were running everything from Washington and out guys in the field were getting their butts shot off because they were afraid of China and Russia. Well they just are not afraid of us enough.. I say give’m HELL!!

while providing jobs and defense when needed.

Posted at 01:01h, 25 JanuaryNo I do not support any more increases to the military complex spending. As a country and as a member of this planet we have other things that need our investing and attention. Enough with all the wars!
