I guess you missed how the last one overwhelmingly passed then...?
ah, just now catching up, busy day yesterday - I guess you missed that I was referring to the incoming dem house? I was referring to the dem senate in the next few years. Of course it passed before the dems took the house - it was going to pass anyways. You watch the next time the military budget is up from the dem senate.

well, you aren't smart enough to be radicalized, you just don't believe in anything - that's your birdbrain schtick.

Yes, I'll watch. they'll pass it overwhelmingly again because they're every bit as fiscally irresponsible as the GOP claims they aren't.
Same same, old boy.

Oh, Y'EAH? well, could be....
but cutting our military budget to add more to the dynamically growing welfare/unearned benefits/dems buying votes isn't helping, and just cutting the military budget isn't going to help either.

Brilliant. Because if I say we've burned a ton of unnecessary money on an overinflated military budget including projects like the one we awarded Lockheed Martin - you know, the F35's that burn through money - 1.33b well over the budget - that MUST mean it goes to those damn welfare queens in Mississippi, huh?
Seriously, man. Use your head. You can be capable of good ideas when you care to.

Why Democrats Voted Against A Military Pay Raise | Speaker.gov
May 18, 2015 - Increasing troop pay and benefits. Funding our ... Democrats voted against the defense bill because they want more domestic spending. As The ...Far sadder:A final effort by Senate Republicans to halt cuts to pensions of military retirees failed late Tuesday, after Democrats blocked an amendment to the controversial budget bill.
The two-year budget agreement, which cleared a key test vote earlier in the day, was expected to get a final vote no later than Wednesday.
Ahead of the final vote, Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., tried unsuccessfully to use a parliamentary tactic to force a vote on the amendment, which he wrote to undo the cuts for military retirees.
A provision in the already House-passed bill would cut retirement benefits for military retirees by $6 billion over 10 years.
Sessions wanted to instead eliminate an estimated $4.2 billion in annual spending by reining in an IRS credit that illegal immigrants have claimed.
He and fellow senators argued the bill unfairly sticks veterans and other military retirees with the cost of new spending.
“It’s not correct, and it should not happen,” Sessions said on the floor.
"By blocking my amendment, they voted to cut pensions for wounded warriors," he said afterwards. "Senators in this chamber have many valid ideas for replacing these pension cuts, including my proposal to close the tax welfare loophole for illegal filers, and all deserved a fair and open hearing. But they were denied.”
Sessions’ office claimed the vote Tuesday to block the amendment was a vote to "cut military pensions instead of cutting welfare for illegal immigrants."

Come, on, Man ! I was in the military. I've read plenty in the past about $200 toilet seats... seen waste like crazy. Read plenty about it in the past. One time, I think it was Charleston AFB, S. Carolina? A commander had a major inspection coming up, so he ordered jeeps, new typewriters, etc etc etc, buried underground. I would hope the military would have been donating all the food that gets left over - to food banks, homeless shelters, etc. all over our country. The F35 - way, way too expensive.
But state of the art super-technology costs a lot. Over years, btw, what does NOT go over budget, eh?

if the F-35 could just make every other country on the planet terrified of fighting a war with us,I'm a happy camper over the burdensome cost.
On a very small scale, I worked in R&D - scientific programmer/analyst for years - the only one. R&D is very, very expensive. On a giant scale - I can't even imagine.

And China has been happy for years to allow the United States to spend a ton of money in research and development and then steal the technology costing the United States hundreds of billions of dollars annually.

I hate that - it's sadly true. China can go to hell, for all I care.

What makes every other country terrified of war with us is - economic downfall, our military/ economic alliances AND nuclear warfare/mass destruction. Nothing more, and especially not a poorly developed, underachieving, barely functional aircraft project.
