On the contrary they turn a blind eye and allow these programs to drain the Treasury. Entitlements are there, we are net, net just above where we were when Clinton left office with total jobs so we are short near 15-20M jobs. So between that and the demographic clock ticking is going to be huge expenditures unless we can grow out of this via Clintonesque type job creation and cut the MIC $1.4T annual cost. Turning a blind eye to the MIC angers me most of all with both sides not wanting to touch it. To see Palin, Cruz ect in DC yesterday bitching about the WW2 Memorial being closed while they caused the shutdown and never ever discussing the MIC as an area to cut is the highest level of hypocrisy
