I see that as the biggest risk to cutting the military as drastically as it deserves to be cut, the economic harm it would cause to this country. When we do finally do it, we'll have to do it gradually. More and more Americans are waking up to the fact that we're spending more now than we did during the Cold War, when the only real threat we face are stateless terrorists with no country, no army, no billions. How the military thinks they can continue to sell that is a mystery to me. Not that any pol ever brings it up or that it ever makes the news.
