So in light of the 2011 August Budget vote, which US weapons system will see the Ax?

Any suggestions (F35, V22, ?).

Or do you think the military-industrial complex will manage to force the cut anywhere else in defense without touching the hardware?

They won't stop spending, far out have you not learned anything. Doesnt matter what a piece of paper says, it's why they increased the debt ceiling. So they can keep spending. If anyone was serious about saving money, you would have done something about it. Obama and US politics it's all they are about, they aren't doing for the people, they are doing it to keep the rich richer. If anything they will spend more money than before on defense and military that's how it usually goes.

I seriously doubt that the military budget will get a cut, the area's that will get cuts will be such areas as welfare, health care, public transport, maintenance and so on.

It's all a Soros/Obama conspiracy to print more money you dont have, NWO destroying US dollar to crash global economy to entice a one world currency. that's the big picture, secondly US aid to foreign countries is out of control, countries depend on this aid and he needed to be able to print money to pay these countries that sadly rely on your tax money to survive in today's global environment. Thirdly your tax isn't being spent to pay these countries or pay the debt off, income tax is barely paying the interest on the money printed. sadly these has now continued with the passing of the latest bill and no one in America cares that you're now going to print more money you can't pay off. So funny, to watch all this occur without a whisper. I can't believe your all believing that there is no way the US could continue if they didn't raise the debt ceiling, that's the biggest lie of all. you would have survived just fine if your leaders had this as their main concern but they don't. You see you stop the 2.8 billion dollars a day on wars that you don't need to be in, the million dollars patriot missiles you keep dropping on third world countries, also if you drill your own oil and also tax the rich. You might get somewhere. Tax china on business in USA and on imports 20%. the list of ways to fix it are endless, yet you are all fed fear of collapse. couldn't be anymore dumbed down as a race, seriously wake up. I wonder why you let them feed you absolute BS. Superjoke, haha.

what I don't understand is how they are allowed to raise it with the numbers associated with US debt, if I had the same numbers of debt, there is no way a bank would give me more money, they would advise me to get my house in order too, which is all a downgrade on credit rating would have done. This would of put focus on reducing debt to get the rating back. Figured it out for f's sake.

They are serious about any cuts to the military.

That would end Lockheed/Martins octopus strangle hold on the military complex.

There are so many duplicated programs in all branches of the military and the government.
