"The defense budget dwarfs everything else in our discretionary budget by a factor of 10x"

Again, National Defense is a proper function of the federal govt.
And btw, we don't spend more than the rest of the world combined. Given our current trajectory that day will come, but it is not here yet.

You don't seem to ever comment on our Mandatory budget which is greater than the Discretionary budget by a fair margin....wonder why? Could it be because it consists of nothing but broken social entitlement programs?
