We have drastically shrunk the military.
REPORT: U.S. Military Spending Has Almost Doubled Since 2001 | ThinkProgress
No, we've almost doubled it.
Perhaps in nominal terms. There may be a sight increase in constant dollars. However, the reality is that since the 1950s, we have drastically decreased the share of the budget going to the military. In those days, military spending took up over half the budget. Teh same goes for military spending as a share of GDP.
What you are doing is cherry picking the data. That's what you always do, and then you claim your theories are "fact based."
[/QUOTE]First, that was long ago
I was referring to the last ten years. That was not very long ago.
So you think we tried a free market and personal responsibility in the last 10 years? What's the point in discussing anything with someone who is so delusional?We became the most powerful nation of Earth and achieved the highest standard of living in the world by relying on personal responsibility.
Do you ever post anything on here that is actually true?
Yes, unlike you.
