Ah, yes...the ages-old blame the military industrial complex...although such people cannot even name a single such player within that industry. Do you like to have $8 dollar a gallon gasoline? Do you like to buy food and other necessities at relatively reasonable prices? There is a reason we are overseas with troops and give out foreign aid.....we provide stability throughout the world. Like it or not, we are the world police.
It is the entitlement programs that are going to kill us. We cannot afford Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security anymore. Everybody and their mothers wants to dip their fingers into the big government pot o' money believing that they have somehow earned it. Millions receiving free housing subsidies, phones, food stamps, electricity, healthcare, transportation, retirement.....must be nice to reap in thousands of dollars monthly while sitting on the couch at home all day.
People have forgotten(except the central American Hispanics) that it takes sacrifice and dedication to get where you need to be. For some reason, they think they are entitled to living a life of luxury on the taxpayer's back.
