I guess no one should have expected the funding levels to continue to be at the same amount for ever. As the funding continues to shrink it seems to
me we should look at what the states have been doing with them. If the were used to make an infrustructer to deal with emergencies and crises that
seems to me to be something that will remain should the funding continue to decline.
However, we must also realise that the enemies will always be ready to exploit a perceived weakness.
