The 2.5 trillion the Tea Partiers claim to be able to cut doesn't TOUCH Medicare or SS, both of which have dedicated taxes to PAY for them!

Why don't we cut the military instead? Over a TRILLION a year, year after year, that just causes more of the world to hate us.

The military is also the most socialist branch of government! It's even got it's own little, separate socialized medicine!

The only place to begin is Defense........the US spends nearly as much on its military as the rest of the world does:

globalsecurity.org

I want to cut the hell out of the defense budget.
