> Military spending is less than 1/5th of all projected spending for 2006. To make serious cuts you have to go after the 4/5ths WOW that's really stupid logic. ...Have u ever heard the question....'they call that a tree'

Where did you get that shit? LOL. What's your guess for military spending? Just look at the projections for social security spending. My guess for defense spending is that it doesn't climb much in inflation adjusted terms. It couldn't climb the way social security and medicare have and will climb unless you expect the US to do a world war type of mobilization. Nonetheless, its a huge part of the federal budget and needs to be reduced. Why are you supporting such wasteful spending?!! ted
