All those cuts won't make up for the $52B increase in defense spending. Tell me why we need to increase defense budget by so much? This is nothing but white collar entitlement for the military industrial complex.
Because when government sees extra money from one place, they see that as money to spend at another place, with a little more sprinkled on top. And that massive deficit doesn't matter, unless the other side is running it and using it for their pet projects.

Bingo. Both sides will increase govt. Spending overall. It's more of an argument of where you want those dollars to be used.

Maybe i missed the math because i am drinking and it is late but the cuts proposed on the OPs post won't cover the increase in spending.
