The only problem is a constitutional one. National defense is a responsibility specifically designated to the federal government and taking money from one citizen to pay for another citizen’s care is not. Please uphold your sworn duty to the actual Constitution.

We'd rather see a fair tax system where all who are able to are paying their fair share. More than enough $. Knee jerk statements to cut military spending are harmful & jeopardize member safety, training & system upgrades. Go after privatization contracts.

In what world does $370 Billion equal $3-4 TRILLION (/year) estimated by nearly every think tank (and the CBO) in the country?
