Cutting Defence spending will lead to lots of jobs being lost and exports, welfare to riots and even worse, Healthcare, education, policing, prisons. Or just close all the Government departments that employ people and make sure big business doesn't rip the people apart?
Look at all the disasters recently and reduce the Public Sector by 33% and see how well the US can cope. Gulf Oil Spill, New Orleans, Flint, and a lot more. Because eventually that's what will end up being cut.

The appeal is they are living in fanasty land and their talking heads have sold them on the non sense that welfare programs are the reason for the debt hence Turing it into a political issue..
Of course it's not the trillions of dollars spent on the NSA spying and military. Nope we need to spend more money on that..
Rah,Rah liberals bad.. Republicans have started electing absolute morons into office andtheir dimwitted nonsense keeps getting worse.
