Rubio brought up spending additional billions and billions of dollars "rebuilding the Navy" and on additional troops, a waste of money we don't have. He reminds me of a petulant little boy. And Cruz demonstrated why so many just plain despise him. The debate was better for Trump not being there, I think. At least the part of it I watched. |

Maybe if the half of the country paying no taxes would get a job and pay some, we would have the money to counter threats. Wonder why China is spending so much on armament? -- Ban idiots, not guns! |

What percentage of what we spend on the military is China spending? Oh, and the threats we have to counter these days aren't really "counterable" by oversized military forces. They're beaten by human intel, which we sorely lack. |

We also supply a lot of the arms for the rest of the world out of that budget and we pay our contractors union wages. (plus the waste and fraud) China still has coolies building their stuff and when the chinese catch a person scamming the government, they get shot. The family gets billed for the bullet. |

Wonder how the supply of .22 ammo is over there. I am sure they will use a 7.62x39 ... probably steel. At least that is what they sell us. |
