Just a general debate

I'm bored and I feel like arguing so here's a general debate on a general topic.

Does the US spend too much on it's military? Discuss.

No. We could cut back a little though. I mean 10 billion more than our closest competitor is a little much, but supremacy comes at a cost.

No. We spend too much on a failing education system, a failing Social Security system and taking care of old people among other things. We should be spending way more on our military to make sure we always have the most dominant fighting force in the world. Look how much we're spending now just to make up for the years and years the democrats have slashed our military to ribbons. It is inexcusable.

We're about fine were we are. We really need to spend smarter more than anything. The military has been fairly wasteful in the past with the vast amount of tax dollar they get every year (as is everything that recieves tax dollars nowdays.). I think some streamlining of the military budget and some foresight could help a bit.

Hell, the whole government need to spend smarter. Shitty public education system that can't keep track of the money we give it. Social Security that probably won't be there when I get older. Shit's getting silly lately.

We certainly do need to spend smarter. Rep for you, sir.

Late.

Green dots for the man here. This was pretty much the same thing I was going to say.
