Where do you think the BLM on demand descrssionary fund comes from.

The Original Bankster says

6.5 Trillion Lost by Pentagon

Expenditures - Fast Facts - US Department of Education

Total expenditures for public elementary and secondary schools in the United States amounted to $620 billion in 2012–13, or $12,296 per public school student enrolled in the fall (in constant 2014–15 dollars, based on the Consumer Price Index).

The conservatives are right. We need to slash spending on education in order to bolster military spending. A $6.5 Trillion loss would just hurt our military too much. We need to just stop all education for the 10 years it will take to make up for the Pentagon's loss. To deal with the uneducated children, we'll just start another war in 2026 to send them all off to die so they won't be a burden on us. It's a win-win.

Not just the military(jobs program) but the portfolios of many congressmen

Lost or they just cant say what they spent it on?

50 tonnes of Ammo dropped to ISIS that isn't cheap either.

A couple two or three Truck loads of high power miliatry tatical assault weapons lost to Mexico.
That's got to add up.

And what does the Republican unfunded wars cost?
The U.S. House of Rep/Con/Teas will pass funding,
regardless of cost,to do a forensic accounting of the Pentagon.
Conservatives always account for every penny & will have no part of
spending more than the revenue received.
They are still in the early stages of addition & subtraction.

HEY YOU says

Rep/Con/Teas

It's important to remember that Hillary is a neocon and you'll be voting for her despite any assertion to the contrary

A lot more than they ought to. How long did it take Obama to pull out of Guantanamo and Iraq ?

In fairness, al-Maliki is a weak alternative to saddam and pushing saddam out is ultimately bush jr incompetence

John McCain (R., Ariz.), chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee said earlier this month that the warship’s latest delay was “unacceptable” and “entirely avoidable"

Obviously, it's unacceptable, but the reason is because his portfolio is taking a hit
