I agree that the military budget is probably excessive; However, the defense of the country is one of the major responsibilities of the government. But defense budget excess can not be totally laid at the feet of the military. There has been too many times that the military wants to close bases, doesn't want certain weapon systems, etc but politicians refuse to accommodate the request because it is in their district or state. In the case of Planned Parenthood and other like programs, those are nice to have but not essential. Additionally we have many government offices that are redundant and many that are not necessary at the federal level. Dept of Education, Dept of Labor for a start.
Probably excessive? Thanks for making my point for me.
