$20,000,000,000 more for the Empire's Armed Forces
« on: August 15, 2012, 06:34:39 AM »

"Ryan’s proposed budget would increase military spending by $20 billion..."

"Even in purely domestic terms Ryan’s budget is a farce: it projects a balanced budget in thirty years, and politically it’s a joke. He’s basically telling American voters they have to give up their Medicare and other benefits so that we can ensure the eternal prosperity of the military-industrial complex and maintain our overseas empire."

They can spend all they want to on the military.  I just hope they eliminate all the social programs.
