What Would You Like The Pentagon’s Budget To Be? It Now Stands At $842B

I'd cut it by 10% every year until the pentagon doesn't have enough money to worry about racism and trannies.

How about theu produce an audit of themselves that is legit, while be audited by 3rd party as well.

Budget is zero until completed

But...but...We can't really feel 110% safe without beefing up the Patriot Act, financing military aircraft flying over our head once ever .002s seconds, and maintaining military bases in 750 countries across the planet (oops -- the Gaza Base will make 751), can we?

That $842B doesn't even include the (undisclosed) Non-White Budget either.

So let's just pay the Piper and continue feeling safe and free from The Baddies.

If you took a careful look at what that money is going to, you could probably cut it in half.

0% until a complete and accurate audit was provided. After that they can have 50% with a 5% year over year cut for the next 8 years.

We could probably stand to lose a few of these.

Too high? What would you cut it to?

Just right?

Too low? What would you raise it to?

Lets see the breakdown and anything not related to the military gets cut, looking at you cia.

Fun fact the DOD has never passed an audit.

Defense spending by the top 3 nations are

U.S. 877Bn

China 293 BN

Russia 86.4 BN

We could cut ours in half and still be well ahead of the next two combined. They’ll have us think cutting this spending would weaken us. It wouldn’t. We could cut it to 500BN and combined with our NATO allies still be far above any other military capability in the world

And in the event of a major war we could ramp it up if necessary. But this level of spending is unnecessary in what is a general peacetime outside of the Ukraine and Israel wars, which we are not directly involved in outside of some weapons/funding and logistical support

That's a pretty good metric, unfortunately with current leadership, the lower bound may be $0.

Probably could be cut by half

-Cut out pointless travel for meetings, my mom does travel for MSIC at Redstone, they send people all over the world for pointless meetings that could be emails or zoom
-Cut out the spend or lose money mindset, no need for new office equipment every year just to spend the budget money. Incentivize departments to save and not spend money
-Cut military bureaucrat workforce by 20%
-Cut out all non-essiential initiatives, no gender crap, no DEI, no gay pride, just military training and excellience

All of these points make too much sense.
