We should be building America instead of other countries..
If we have a problem with some other country, just send a drone to kill their leader..
There's no need to kill innocent civilians who hate their leaders as many here do..
They sure do.. Just think of how many American lives could be made better if their 53% taxes went to roads, bridges and health care instead of building other countries that we invade and give free health care to.. I just can't understand how Anybody can be okay with what is happening in America.. The MIC is raping us blind and playin everybody for fools.. And they think it's "Patriotic" to do so.. WTF??othershoe1030 wrote:Lurch wrote:This is what needs to Stop..

Obviously this is a tough nut to crack because most Americans don't have the foggiest notion about what that chart shows. They hear the pols, mostly R's shouting in the general direction of the White House about how Obama is trying to gut our military and they join the chorus without knowing the numbers.
Also, as you know, defense spending is the big jobs program (oops, I forgot, the government doesn't create jobs, my bad!) that is spread throughout the country into every congressional district. Look how Miller's hair spontaneously combusts during the BRAC reviews!
All those engineers, computer geeks, and support businesses from nuts and bolts to restaurants in towns far and near have come to depend on this huge payroll from the feds.
At this point the MIC has the nation pretty well snowed and sewn up.

Actually it is our illustrious elected folk that are raping the tax payer. The "MIC" as you say is nothing without funding that comes from the elected pols'.

Our military hasn't won a war since Greneda ... and they cost more every year. Reality.

The U.S. Department of Defense plans to open up 16 million acres of its land for renewable energy development, which it hopes will create a boom of solar, wind and geothermal projects and provide clean power to military bases, the department announced Monday.
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta and the Interior Secretary Ken Salazar signed a memorandum of understanding to work together on promoting renewable energy generation projects on public land that has historically been restricted for military uses. About 13 million of those 16 million acres are located in western U.S., where a lot of solar, wind and geothermal power development already has been taking place on private and other types of public land.
