Congress, with the help of democrats, just voted against a bill to cut military budget

When american generals and politicians start facing war crimes and other countries start dropping bombs on our heads for being aggressors then you will see an attitude adjustment

Good...when other countries' citizens convince their government to cut such spending, then maybe I'll consider changing my opinion

dems are trash what else is new. whats funny to me is this bill cutting the budget by ten percent, doesnt even lower the budget to what it was pre trump when it was already bigger than the next 10 countries combined. its just like biden raising the corp tax rate to 28 percent if hes elected. like it was 35 percent pre trump. we cant even get dems to agree to pre trump shyt. were not even going back to the status quo. were going back to the middle point of the status quo and trumpism. thats the dems always meet the right half way as he we pull further and further into fascsim, fukk the weak ass dems

but that's always the consequences of going backwards. people were shytting on obama for those pre-trump numbers and saying both sides are the same and nothing will be different if trump wins. well this is what happens when you go backwards. the next forward move doesn't simply take you back to wear it was and even if it did why settle for these constant lurch forwards and backwards like it's a game. build on obama's military budget cuts and tax increases instead of saying it wasn't enough and fukk y'all i'm going home.

there was no more budget. their leader shot himself in the head and the country was split amongst the winners.

ask your democrat to close down the military base in your district

the fact is that the pentagon/military budget is just a socialist jobs program at this point. as disgusting as it is, the dems arent cutting it either

No people understand we just don't think having those jobs is worth running the biggest death machine in history.

All government spending is a good thing... it gives birth to "new money creation".

Yeah, who likes any of this besides war mongers? This has no support from people who don't work for these companies. And I'm sure if they were able to build cell phone parts instead of jets, guns and tanks they would. The military industrial complex needs to be dismantled. The first step is to take money out of politics.

Billions are at state not millions.

that’s never going to happen unless something else comes along to take its place. And I say take in a sense that it would make sense to scale back.

I wouldn't say never but I would say it is very difficult. Still that's not a reason to not do it. Lives are at stake to not just billions. War profiteering isn't it chief.
