Until the BRIC eat our fucking lunch and it's too darn late.

Specify how Brazil, Russia, India, and China could conquer this country after my proposed cuts.

Stupid, stupid, stupid proposal. Do you deny that oceans are one of the most effective free, natural military defenses in existence?

Much respect for you generally as a member here, but this proposal is just asinine. Tell me why this country needs a large standing army for defense (and nothing that the Army and Marines are doing now, nor anything they've done in an extremely long time, is real defense). Maintaining Pax Americana is not defense. Catering to billionaire robber barons is not real defense either.
