You claim to oppose wasteful, deficit spending but laud wasteful, deficit spending on military shit.

Then you have failed to process post # 13.

Where did I laud anything? I said it was the least of our problems. That still includes it as a problem. I simply see no point focusing on defense spending when it is one of the few things everyone supports, and its only 20% of spending.

Post 13 is not a fact. Its a graph with no source. So here is an actual fact. The White House lists the Defense Superfunction as costing 700bn.
