[John Edgar Slow Horses]

DoD is a mandated duty of the Federal Government, per the Constitution.
The "richies" are not and can be trimmed.
It's the various "welfare" for the non-working that is the real killer when trying to balance the budget.

I said "balancing the budget". Yes, it is the richies that are leading to these unholy deficits.
