Looks like Obama is kissing NASA goodbye along with our nukes, getting rid of the Marines wouldn't be a stretch. After all, he'll soon have his 100k "National Civilian Security Force, just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded"...

Bob, do you know of a website that would show the amount of taxes for families making from $75,000 to maybe $175,000 a year? Including the current taxes and then a chart including ALL the current proposed ones? And included if at all possible, both the Federal taxes, but also ALL the additional ones levied by each State? I think it is going to stagger most people when they really know what the Dems have done and are continuing to do....

Can you imagine - kissing the US Marine Corp goodbye? Not no: HELL NO! The Marines predate the US Army, the US Navy, the Declaration of Independence, and the Constitution. Not only that, you get the most bang for the buck with the Marines! The Marine Corps accounts for around six percent of the Military budget of the United States. The cost per Marine is $20,000 less than the cost of a serviceman from the other services, and the entire force can be used for both hybrid and major combat operations,
