What's this?

I have no problem with increasing what has been a lagging military budget


Like it or not, much of the world relies on us to keep some semblance of order.

We spend 2/3 of revenue on social security, Medicare, Medicaid, and other social programs. Do we really need to spend more?

As for me, personally, I'm of the opinion I pay more than my fair share; this year an additional $90k due to AMT and Obamacare Excess Investment Income tax. Sorry, but that's just BS. But I guess someone has to pay since 50% pay nothing.
