The Feds take in trillions of dollars every year and the one item of spending that is authorized by the Constitution is our defense.
Here is an idea. Allocate the required amount of money needed to pay for our troops in the field and then dole out what is left to the other programs.
Sounds plausible by me. nd if they fall short? They can CUT domestic crap before they DENY our troops ANYTHING they need before *I* will give one more RED CENT to these wasters of protoplasm.
