The "defense" budget is in need of serious overhaul. Do we really need 75,000 troops in Europe or 35,000 troops in Japan? Do we need 19 military bases in Germany? There is also the matter of the items the pentagon says it doesn't need or want, but that congress decides to fund anyhow.
I won't believe any budget is serious until it begins to make cuts to the parts of the "defense" budget that have nothing whatsoever to do with actual defense.
