Overkill

IN January 2013, according to law, the american military budget is going to be cut considerably, which seems to make sense, since the united states already has enough military might to destroy every nation on earth repeatedly, and is bankrupt.

never let common sense get in the way of politics; the republicans are determined to restore the moncy to the military, and to instead cut food stamps and various other social welfare programs to "pay for it."

...is there any reason for anyone to be surprised by this?  never met a republican who didn't adore military over spending.

the hard cold fact is that if the united states does not drastically reduce military expenditures, the economy will eventually collapse, as it seems to have been trying to do for the past several years. a bankrupt empire cannot keep its empire indefinately. great britain relinquished hers gracefully, with relative dignity; america must do the same, and soon.

ther best solution to welfare programs is to limit them to their current levels, while moving people off them through job creation. social spending is indeed a problem, the republicans are right about that. we cannot continue the current trend of increasing entitlements without increasing productivity. that will ruin the currency, and dollars will fill wheel barrows as mothers walk to the store to spend millions on groceries, like post world war one germany.

it is beyond dispute that within the realm of human nature people who are paid to not work are tempted to not work. we all know recipients of disability of whose disabilities we are suspicious.

but if military spending is not severely reduced, and soon, america will become a disabled nation, and we'll all need welfare.
