If military is cut then the money should be diverted to industries of the future that will have a far larger export market than those the West decide to sell to.
Just cutting will cause job losses and waiting for private enterprise to pick up the slack, is the line conmen use to convince the clueless, step up Private King.
Putting some of the $663.84 billion into industries that produce something every country in the world and every one in the world can buy, brings far more jobs and wealth. See Germany and Japan as the examples, yes it's tough now. Less tough on some though.
he says the opposite of what makes sense. He wants to spend more on Naval warships, tanks, planes and conventional troops -- when what America really needs has been what Obama has been using: Special Forces and drones. You don't hear about it much, but the president's drone program has been a huge success, and pretty much decimated Al Quada's leadership. Also, we all know about who got Bin Laden, and it sure as hell wasn't a regiment of Marines or Army grunts.
There's nothing wrong with being ready for a ground war with a large enemy army, but our enemy is different these days. Our military needs to be a scalpel, not a sledgehammer.
Romney's comments about strengthening the military stem directly from a need to have the military industrial complex humming so rich people can get richer. There's not a single concern about what is actually needed to keep us safe in the age of Islamic terrorism.

Who is the enemy? Pick from, guys in huts, caves. N. Korea is a possible, Russians who want to sell you what they have. Chinese who have to sell you what they have. EU, S. Americans.
He lives in the past, like so many in the World. If WW3 comes, it will be missiles from ships, subs and land based, guided bombs from planes. Which the US has enough of to take out anyone except those who want Americans to buy their goods.
Spend some of the $663.84 on creating a better, more fuel efficient engine the World will buy and create jobs in the US. Or Solar Panels, computer chips, better hard drives, faster what ever it is that runs my computer,
Invent more things like Teflon, Velcro or something else we all use every day of our lives and repay the debt.
