This year, in the name of security, the federal government spent over twice as much on the military as we did on education, science, the environment, housing, and transportation combined. In an age that will require tighter budgets, it’s time to recognize that securing the future safety and well-being of America means investing less in overseas military bases and operations and more in our citizens at home.
