Social program abuse cases represent PENNIES compared to the billions of tax dollars spent on the military industrial complex, not to mention the taxes that the wealthy and corporations are NOT paying. We need welfare reform. That is clear. But you're complaining about a scratch, when the jugular is cut and bleeding.
I agree with you, military spending is out of control and it's only going up. The sad thing here is in order to cut spending we would need to stop policing the entire globe and internet but it doesn't look like that is going to happen because Americans, at least most of them want a hard nose stance on foreign policy. I say this because we all know Ron Paul wants to pull our troops back and cut military spending and people must see this as weakness as evidenced by his lack of support in recent states.
