We should have cut military expenditures by 50 percent a dozen years ago, and kept on cutting.

What a colossal waste of national resources. The real problem is that is probably the biggest single jobs program. I was just in Southern Md and the Navy points out that if they closed Pax River the whole economy down there would dry up and blow away. You are certainly not supporting that area with a few crab shacks and fishing charters. The CO even thought of paying everyone on the base with $2 bills for a month so everyone else would understand where the money they have, comes from. You hear the same thing everywhere there is a military base. You also have all if the defense contractors, that are fairly evenly spread across the whole country. There are very few congressmen who want to lose a widget factory in their district. It is the kind of Keynesian socialism lefties like you usually support. DoD is a drug that the whole country is addicted to. As I stated, we should have started cutting the military drastically at least a dozen years ago, and turned our attention towards rebuilding our industries and infrastructure, instead of pouring it down the toilet of military expenditures. Those military hardware factories could be turning out components for high speed rail lines or lawnmowers or refrigerators. So we should have socialized our industries, and should be turning out high-priced goods nobody would buy. Yeah, that's the ticket. You need to stick to things you know, like writing fiction. |

You really need to move out of Stupidville, South Carolina.

You really need to move out of Stupidville, South Carolina. Nowhere did I say we should have "socialized our industries." Go back and read what you wrote. When you take federal funds from the military and put it into factories that make common household goods, you are socializing industry. That's exactly what you proposed. Maybe that's why you are a liberal. You don't seem to understand what they are all about, or even what you write. |
