  1. +Danny Boy I love how you start with the military that 1. creates jobs 2. funds research 3. funds education for those who serve 4. help out in domestic disasters You seem to be so supportive of programs that just give money away to people who do nothing and want to cut from a program that actually produces in our society. Also defense budget (which is constitutional BTW) is around 20% of federal spending and is only around $600 billion. Other programs (many that are unconstitutional) make up the rest. In 2016 revenue was around $3.3 trillion and spending was around $4 trillion. Even if we were to cut all military spend, shut the lights out and everything, we still won't be breaking even.

  2. These trade deals benefit us in a lot of ways. The countries getting these jobs are underdeveloped and this gives them a chance to develop. Countries that are underdeveloped are more susceptible to crime and violence, like terrorism, which can effect the rest of the world. Also we are a developed nation and should push for creating higher skilled jobs and more higher skilled people. We should have less people working the factory lines and more working in STEM fields and medical fields. That will create more progress for a developed nation, not people doing mundane task for 10 hours in a factory.

  3. I agree, we need to stop outsourcing jobs. We can start by removing federal taxes and regulations. But of course what democrat will support that.

  4. +Danny Boy Not really. We can go back to a tax on the states like it use to be and get rid of a lot of federal programs.
