That would be a good start, and then shaving off 5% or so every year until we have shaved around 40% or so of our CURRENT millitary amount being spent right now would be acceptable.RJ Wrote:Our country needs more moderation when it comes to economics. We need to bump up the taxes for the rich 10 or 15 percent more instead of extending more tax breaks. We need to pull out of these middle east wars and we need to cut the millitary back by 15% and shut down some of our over seas bases.
That would be a GREAT start. Right now the rich are making sure the rich are not affected by the recession, and that is going to destroy our tax system in the long run. We need SHARED sacrifice across the board.
All of the above, but more from defence. I must say though, its not looking good.
The key word here is moderation. Moderation and shared sacrifice across the board. No instant changes, we need a god kick start, then a 4 to 8 year plan to slowly move everything back to pre 80's buildup for the millitary.
Frankly I am tired of my country being the police force of the world. Other countries dispise us until something bad happens, then they get pissed that we arent coming in to help them out and give them free food and services.
