re: Budget Cuts Leave 101st Airborne Crippled

What this graph says to me is 2 things.
1. that we need to quit spending money on useless social justice experimenting and lean up our fighting force. This is not a peace keeping force. Not a social engineering force. A lethal military force.

2. Other countries, particularly our allies in S. Korea, France, UK, Germany need to up their spending and quit relying on us to pay the bill. If they continue to do so we charge them.

I am all for cutting down the wasteful spending (military gender studies, biofuel at $59, obsenly over budget projects) because a lean, efficient organization will always be more flexible and responsive to needs, what ever they are
