National Defense

Defense spending was cut as part of the sequester, which was passed at President Obama’s suggestion because Congress could not agree about spending.  As a result, the size of our military has been drastically reduced.  Some feel that the military is now too small, and that it cannot meet the existing and potential threats to our national security.  This is your chance to let the world know what you think about that?

QUESTION:  How large do you think the military needs to be for our nation to be adequately protected?

  1. I have heard that our military is now smaller than it was before WWII. I'm not sure if that is accurate, but if we have our hand in other peoples political business, then we need to have the military strength to carry out such operations relief or defense or otherwise and also to protect us when we offend or anger or are simply attacked without provocation. The government seems to forget that no one outside of America likes Americans and we should be prepared for hostile intentions from outside sources.
