posted by jmogYou can't blame the trillions of debt on entitlements only when the military, part of what supporting wars budget goes to, is like 1/3 of the budget.
There is no way to get out of deficit spending without cutting entitlments AND the military...both.
I agree. I should have put "as well" after bureaucracies. My point is I don't categorically reject foreign military aid and that some is necessary. That more should be paid by those closest to the issue. I have many times mentioned that we subsidize European defense spending. Given the circumstances in the world its hard to strike that balance without us bowing out.
