Obama's muddled economic plan

[Danzig]

i wish i did. i get that it's a big industry that supports a lot of workers-but it's a tremendous drain on our treasury. defense and 'entitlements' are the two huge budget busters. can that really continue? if that's what we want, we have to find a way to pay for them. it's really that simple. and before anyone says 'cut foreign aid'-go look at the budget requirements.
it's why i shake my head every time a candidate says 'we need more defense' or the president says 'we can't cut defense'. it's the pink elephant in the corner. well, one of two.
