They love to tout that they have cut nonmilitary spending every year. They have. Unfortunately they've gone hog wild giving out to their military contractor cronies.
I don't believe in deficit spending at all. Period. For no reason. If you can't run a war on your current income, you got no reason to go to war. Unless your war will bring about lots of mad phat lewt, but those days are long gone, sadly.
Though, it would be nice to raid the middle east and take all those awesome islamic articfacts, Allah knows they can't be trusted to safekeep them over the long term.
