stopping spending (or at least significantly reducing it to levels we actually need to defend our country) on our offense department would balance the budget in no time.
Yes... stop spending a trillion $$ a year on the military. Do you know anyone who will put the kabosh on defense spending? If you want to save America it's got to happen. There isn't anyone running that has the cajones to do it. Ron Paul would try, but he has no chance of being elected.
