Is there anything that todays Republicans are not afraid of?
We all have to be afraid of criminals in our country and we all have to be afraid of the terrrorists in other countries.
And no amount of guns or money seems to alleviate those fears. Down ward spiral.
Ole President Eisenhower warned about the military/industrial complex, way back in the late 50ties. Man knew what he was talking about. And he was talking before lobbyists could spend so much on elections.
Yea, unless there is something in it for the Congresspeople that would have to decide on funding cuts for the military, I don't see much in the way reduced spending. To much money to be spread around by the defense industry and their lobbyists.
Kinda like "tax reform" and "term limits". The very people that would have to make the changes are the ones the changes would hurt. Not gonna happen.
