Pentagon Plans to Shrink Army to Pre-World War II Level

[C0RYH0FFMAN]

4. I am all for cutting down the war machine but...

"takes into account the fiscal reality of government austerity" is for the wrong reason. Progressives cannot accept the false premise that we need to target "austerity". Or private economy needs more U.S. Treasury securities not less. Our private economy needs more federal government spending, not less. I'd much rather have more productive government spending like infrastructure spending but the fact still remains that building Fighter Jets means the Federal Government is crediting private sector bank accounts here in the United States, at the end of the day.

Cutting the military behemoth is fine. But, we need to do it because it is the practical and pragmatic thing to do. Not because this is an "age of austerity".

What about and age of prosperity instead?
