Cutting Defense 50% Can Save America

 

Slashing the Defense Budget by 50% Can Save America From Itself

Millionaires Protected by Congress

Who will be the very first to fight AND WIN for the middle class?

Currently, members of congress protect, in North Dakota for instance, 580 MILLIONAIRES, instead of helping the 400,000 MIDDLE-CLASS, HARD WORKING North Dakotans who pay their fair share in federal taxes each year. This same 99-to-1 disparity is true for EVERY SINGLE STATE in the union.

Newt Gingrich, Republican Presidential Candidate, recommends reducing child labor laws and suggests having struggling, low-income families to have their children go to work in schools mopping floors, helping librarians, etc., see the MSNBC video here:

Question: Why do 99% of americans continually vote into office those who only support the wealthy 1% in their policy-making? Support the candidate that will fairly tax the 1% wealthy who have for too long dodged taxes through the loopholes politicians give them.

The MAIN Problem??

The major news media, most presidential cnadidates, the president and the corporate politicians, and their super committees are only addressing a TINY FRACTION of the budget - maybe 4% - when they talk about helping the financial and employment mess of america. They continue to shield the defense budget form american view.

But over 77.7% of each and every tax dollar is wasted/misspent/abused on the overblown, overgrown, and overdone military complex called the defense budget. There are hundreds of military bases in goofy places like Germany and Korea - needless for national defense but wanted by weapons makers, contractors, and the politicians they have in the pockets of these few millionaire war mongers.

This tax money is used to support companies like Exxon Mobil and Halliburton who use the 77.7% of the hard-earned tax dollars to try to conquer the world’s oil fields (and the owner’s, thereof), using their own personal mercenary militia squads called the u.s. military. Through these undeclared “wars” to do their dirty work and to ascertain the trillions in bi-monthly profits they continue to scheme off the american people and oil well owners. Republican presidential candidate, Ron Paul, stated during a presidential debate that at no time has a congressional bill been presented which officially declares a war against neither Afghanistan or Iraq - let alone Libya or Iran.

The REAL Remedy??

Ron Paul exposes this dire mess in his infinite wisdom and raw common sense.

There’s plenty of money in Washington. In fact, to slash the nefarious military defense budget just in half, for example, would mean each middleclass household having to pay over $2,300 LESS in federal income tax each year.

It would also translate to each school in each district in each county of each state could receive over $500 thousand dollars per year that they could utilize for books, supplies, music, art, salary increases, new infrastructure - whatever is needed and WHAT IS NEEDED for struggling american school systems.

Retirement age could even be LOWERED (instead of the continued talk to raise retirement age to 70 and above) to 58 years with no need to EVER worry about stealing funds from this account if a proper and moral 50% defense budget cut is made.

Only candidate Ron Paul exposes the ludicrous drum-beat-for-war continually sounded by the generals-on-the-ground - who, of course, are going to recommend to a commander-in-chief president that occupation and theft of oil is the way to go (as that’s their job security). Ron Paul also points out that any country has a human/national right to develop nuclear technology/weaponry - as long as the u.s., Britain, Israel, Pakistan, China, and Russia nations do. Who are we to say?

And the military could still maintain its nuclear weapons pointed at each and every nation of the world. Those nations would not dare get america mad at them - they already witnessed what america did to Japanese citizenry in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in the mid 1940’s - they know who the REAL lunatics are in the world - the u.s. greedy corporations/oil companies and their puppet military generals who beat the drum for war.

Encourage candidates like Ron Paul who expose the greedy military complex that continues to cripple america and rip-off americans for the benefit of only a select few.
