Where would you like your tax dollars to go?

Your definition of paying down debt is different than mine. To me paying down debt is reducing it not slowing the rate it grows.

I've said all along that reducing military spending is something we need to do. That in itself though isn't going to be enough though. We are going to need to reduce in other areas and/or raise revenues to to get us where we need to be. Where we need to be is have the flexibility to reduce (pay down) our national debt in times of prosperity. Something we haven't done in 60 years.
