I have many questions..
Presently it costs Billion to make 30,000 homes solar, why not spend more on that rather than defense? these are proven technologies and 100 billion will make 3 million homes solar.
Why doesn’t the US government spend more on making the US less reliant on fossil fuel? also, why not more tax breaks on Hybrids? and make them more popular so that auto manufacturers spend more on R&D? Why do we spend so much on engineering efficient weapons and not on engineering energy efficiency? Jobs would be created either way. WHAT ARE WE DOING? Why are we so short sighted as a country? Less dependency on oil = less financing for the Middle east region = less middle east infuence in the world = less powerful muslim states = less threat from terrorists… RIGHT???
WHAT ARE WE DOING?
I am not saying that the US should spend {content} on defense, I am saying that spending money on making the country more fuel efficient is another means of defense.
I am also not saying that they will no longer want to destroy our country, I am saying that if we provide them with less they will have less to attack us with. I am also saying that if the middle east has less influence on us then we will have FREEDOM to interact with them how we wish, with out worrying so much about financial repercussions.
Making our country less reliant on the Middle East will go a long way toward making our country more secure. EVEN BUSH SAID SO!!!
What did I write that made people that I am saying the US should spend {content} on defense? geez…
