Between the military budget and VA, we spend over 60% of our discretionary income
National Defense is sort of the original intention of the federal government.

Great point. Let's talk about original intent.
We were never intended to have a large standing army in peace time. We were intended to maintain a powerful navy with militia during peace time.
The founders were concerned with us stationing troops all over the damn place and getting our noses where they don't belong.
Good thing that never happened

You are deluding yourself if you think that our military in its current form is for national defense. We could EASILY cut our defense budget in half and still defend this country. The Atlantic and Pacific Oceans do most of the fricking working anyway.
