Another $200 million for the Pentagon up in smoke?

While social programs are being scrapped across the board, expenses for the Pentagon are exploding more than ever. The US spends several times over what China spends on their military, but few speak out in favor of cutting in. More than $200 dollars has been spent on training police forces in Iraq. Is tax money actually being spent on anything being asked for?

It's useless anyway. They misplace 2.3 Trillion on 09/10/01 and then allow themselves to get attacked a day later. Worthless.
