Looming U. S. National debt crisis.

Getting rid of the EPA is a great idea.

The EPA is no longer interested in reducing pollution but punishing the enemies of secular progressivism (godless communism).

CO2 is the lifeblood of the planet and they treat it as a pollutant???

That is just f***ed up.

Until the EPA pulls their collective heads out of their collective asses we should keep firing their dumb asses to limit the harm they can do to America.

As far as the military, the Chinese spend more than one third as much as the US, but their soldiers only cost one tenth as much because they are small and yellow.

So the Chinese military budget is 3-4 times as large as US budget in real terms.

Since the Chinese military budget is growing 8-10% per year the situation is going from dangerous to really bad quite rapidly. They already vastly outspend us in real terms. Given that they get their hardware for pennies on the dollar, when they hit funding parity in 7-10 years it will all be over.

I think you need to look up what the EPA actually does. You are stretching pretty far. As for the Chinese military budget they are nowhere near the US. Nobody is. Funding for the military needs to be cut and I will stand my ground on that. At minimum it would take China 20 to 30 years to get to the tech we have in our military. But in 20 to 30 years our tech will far surpass that. Even with cutting the budget by 200 billion. Theoretically, China will never catch up. Which is why I propose slashing up to 200+ billion from the US military budget and put it into other programs. There is literally no fucking need to spend 8+ billion on fighter jets, it's sickening. It's also sickening that we spend 60+ billion on black projects when most of those projects never see the light of day. It's wasted money, plain and simple. Don't get mad at the EPA's 8 billion when we spend 60+ billion on things you don't even know about.

The EPA has the ability to do a trillion dollars of damage, annually, to the economy. I look at what they are actually doing, not what they are actually supposed to be doing. I am not impressed that you claim they are actually doing what they are actually supposed to be doing.

I live too close to DC to be that gullible.
