Military spending is what's out of control...and the federal govt. is to blame.

To try and somehow shift what the feds are doing (taking people's money through taxation and funneling it to their cronies in the military industrial complex) and make it the fault of ignorant rednecks is completely outrageous.

One day the people of this country are going to wake up and stop being the victim of crooked politicians who have created this fantasy of "red vs. blue" and completely distracted the population from what they are doing.
Military spending is out of control..

However, in order to change that, you need to provide the people that work with the military other ways to get jobs

so not only are they using that funding, they're using it in the wrong places, while voting for people who are working toward dismantling that social structure? Can't imagine 'social funding' is any republican platform. (unless it's military spending?)

anyway, the whole right/left paradigm. i don't really follow it.

for example, i am not a liberal
