It's the military spending, stupid!
I laugh at all these scholars who want to cut spending yet we somehow 'sweep under the rug' the 1/2 TRILLION we spend on the military, 10 times what anyone else spends EVERY F^^^$$ING YEAR.
Much of this tax money is doled out to private corporations, the 'outsourcing' of our military.
Worried about debt, cut the fat and the corporate welfare of the military.
Austerity hypocrites!
