re: Do you support cuts to military spending?

For every dollar cut from military spending match it with 2 dollars cut from welfare programs and then we'll talk.

Why not for every $2 cut from military, $1 cut from welfare?

Or dollar for dollar.

Plus, military spending just got a $50 billion jump last year, so why don't we scale that back and start from there?

The more war toys you give them, the more Trump and Bolton will want to play war.

And there has not been any talk that I have seen about trying to get more bang for the buck out of the money we spend on the military. How much pure fat is there in a $700 billion annual military budget - $50b - $100b?

Russia spent $61 billion on defense in 2017, a 17% decline from the previous year. China's budget for 2018 is $175 billion, a 1.1% increase from 2017.
