Maureen, you like this. When the US decided to participate in the flash mob

air defense targets. The price tag for each missile: over 1 million
dollar

The US spend more on defense than the rest of the world's governments combined
by a factor of 2 or 3 times.
Also a very simple suggestion would be to go back to the Ronald Reagan era tax
rates. Eliminate the Bush era tax cuts. Just eliminating the tax cuts alone
would go a long way to defusing
We need defense because we don't know if our new rulers will provide healthcare?

End the wars. There is 24 billion dollars in the current budget
payable to Lockheed Martin, a substantial chunk of it for airplanes.
Why do we 24 billion dollars worth of spending to a defense contractor
when we can't afford to take care of the health care needs of our
children?

Pretty damn impressive to want to spend 20 billion dollars than you have.

Anything that counts expense or revenue that cannot be booked in the
current fiscal year is a gimmick. To use phrase that has been much
overused in the last few weeks, it's simply kicking the can down the

No, it simply means that 20 billion dollars more has been requested
than the projected revenue will cover. It does not mean that 20
billion more has been spent, as it has not, because the California
constitution forbids deficit spending. The problem arises because no
funds can be disbursed for t
