Defense spending as a percentage of the budget is really low.......we are on pace to collect close to 4 trillion dollars.....if you cant pay for the rest of govt with 3 trillion....well maybe theres the prob ehWerent they all in favor of reducing foreign aid before the election too...seem to remember multiple posts on itIt's always great to watch progressives squirm when a Republican wants to increase military strength. Just goes to show libs only want a neutered and weak military.
You are right, but in fairness they were always for that while the Republicans were always for increased military spending. Nobody's position really changed much.
Yes, exactly. this, in my opinion, is priority number 1We need to rebuild he navy......get our ship levels back up...
No, I'm saying that if every branch of the service needs more people then there HAS to be more money allocated for training, pay, uniforms, etc. That would certainly add money to the annual budget and that's just one aspect of the problemThe Navy needs more sailors. Usually when an Aircraft carrier is deployed the crew of another Carrier takes over, there are not enough sailors to fully man every ship.
Ok, well then put an enlisting freeze on the Air Force or Army and tell people they need to enlist in the Navy. You think the Navy doesn't have enough people because of the amount of money budgeted to the military? Please tell me you don't.
The military needs more money. The Navy needs more ships, the Army and Marines need more troops and the Air Force needs more pilots and spare parts..
We already spend more than the next 5+ countries combined on military, no we don't need to spend more.
Because we protect those next 5 countries...while they spend their money on their welfare programs....
New money is needed for recruitment. Probably an across the board pay raise as well. The Navy offers many, many career opportunities that apply to civilian jobs after your time is up.No, I'm saying that if every branch of the service needs more people then there HAS to be more money allocated for training, pay, uniforms, etc. That would certainly add money to the annual budget and that's just one aspect of the problemThe Navy needs more sailors.

We don't have a draft...I've never talked to anyone that said they decided to join the military because the uniforms were new and more expensive.

You want to spend more on recruitment, then spend less on something else. It's that simple. Again, the most successful business don't get that way by just spending more money every time there is a problem.

We don't protect Russian and China.
We need better Littoral combat craft, supply ships and oilersYes, exactly. this, in my opinion, is priority number 1We need to rebuild he navy......get our ship levels back up...
We have 10 supercarriers. The most next to us? Nobody. We operate the only supercarriers in existence.

No, no we don't.
That's the biggest problem. They want to start all this shit while trying to cut the military and give out warning notes.It's always great to watch progressives squirm when a Republican wants to increase military strength. Just goes to show libs only want a neutered and weak military.
Funny Conservatives can't make up their damn minds. First they call Libs warmongers, then they say that Libs want a weak and watered down military.
I want an efficient military within a much smaller budget, and to avoid war as much as possible except in extreme situations where it is warranted like with North Korea.

We Protect Europe, Japan, South Korea, Australia, Canada........that costs a lot of money...that they aren't paying...

No, no we don't.
He actually knows how to run things...I'd trust his judgement and the generals he hired vs. a left wing, anti military, anti American poster.....

You act as though we gain no benefit.The military needs more money. The Navy needs more ships, the Army and Marines need more troops and the Air Force needs more pilots and spare parts..

If the Military's readiness is fucked it doesn't matter how powerful they are.We already have a strong military.It's always great to watch progressives squirm when a Republican wants to increase military strength. Just goes to show libs only want a neutered and weak military.
Republicans have been running the house for 4 years so they must want a weak military. Republicans allowed sequester to take place cutting the military & vet benefits.
Trump will cut State & Foreign Aid. Two items that prevent war & the need for our military.
You & your orange buddy are both too stupid to get it.
