Title: Trump Budget Would Slash Domestic Spending, Boost Military Spending

On Monday, President Trump will officially propose his new budget plan, which calls for major cuts in domestic spending across the board, but which also seeks a large further increase in military spending, above and beyond the increases already planned.

Exact figures aren’t clear at this point, but what is clear is that the general direction of this budget is going to face major opposition within the House of Representatives, not just from the Democratic leadership, but from some Republicans as well.

It’s not just the heavily military-centric priorities that will fuel the opposition, though clearly that is part of it. The budget proposal also ditches the Republicans’ goal of a 10-year time-frame for a balanced budget.

Instead of a 10-year balancing, the new proposal envisions a 15-year time. Even that is based on projections of large economic growth that most economists say are not realistic, and potentially not even possible.

That money will be going into the US military, already the costliest military on the planet by far. The US military budget is so vast as it is, that it is larger than the next several countries combined, and it has already grown substantially in the last two years, while the other comparatively large spenders are trying to make cuts to the military to get their budgets in line.

Budget Committee Chairman Rep. John Yarmuth (D-KY) says that the plan is a “non-starter,” and that the House leadership has no plans to include the domestic spending cuts in their own plan, and effectively are going to disregard Trump’s proposal.

So - where is his promise to fix up the infrastructure?

Trump Budget Would Slash Domestic Spending ...

Hey, Deckard – Do you think this is wrong, and if you think it is then can you please explain why you think that?

While you are are considering an answer, I will continue on to state that it pleased me greatly to learn that the OMB said 5 percent cuts in non-defense spending are expected to save $2.7 trillion over the next 10 years.

Read that again, Deckard – I know you are a slow learner so concentrate carefully on that statement.

Now, Deckard, you are obviously not aware that this is more spending reductions proposed than by any administration in history. I repeat, in history. The reason I say you are obviously not aware of this is because you have posted such a ridiculously agenda driven article here.

When you you get a grasp about the reality of the slash in domestic spending, let’s then look objectively at the military spending.

I’ll meet you back here in a while …

Eric July will be explaining what libertarianism is to Ron Paul, Ben Swann, Judge Nap, Larkin Rose, Mark Passio and others at AnarchApulco in Acapulco, Mexico - February 2020.

Seriosly? You have the chutzpah to criticize others for making shit up, and here you go completely changing the statement in the original post just so you can bore us with another of your delusional long-winded screeds about your twisted beliefs concerning libertarians.

Here's the ORIGINAL sentence: Eric July will be speaking with Ron Paul, Ben Swann, Judge Nap, Larkin Rose, Mark Passio and others at AnarchApulco in Acapulco, Mexico - February 2020.

Man, you're a real hypocritical piece of work

Eric July will be speaking with Ron Paul ...

Speaking: "the action of conveying information or expressing one's thoughts and feelings in spoken language."

Conveying information: "Explaining one's thoughts and feelings in spoken language."

Ergo:

Eric July will be explaining what libertarianism is to Ron Paul ...

What am I doing here"

I am "EXPLAINING" this to you.
