The government announced that they are freezing all spending on the federal budget for the next five years, but nothing was said about the US spending on the military. The money given to the military accounts for a quarter of the government’s money. Also all the money spent on our military is more than any other nation.
This has to do with government because the military is how our country is protected. The government also decides how much will be spend on the military and other things.
The military is very important. They are the people keeping us safe. I am glad that our country does not just overlook our safety. At the same time we are in economic turmoil and we need to be very careful with our spending. I think we need to find a way to keep our military effective but decrease our spending in any way.

We should find a way to stop spending so much on the military. In a way i dont want them to spend less. What happens when some crazy war starts and we get pulled into it?
ReplyDeleteI don't think we should spend as much money as possible for the military. But, I do think that a big part of money should go towards them. I mean, they are working against protecting us and keeping us safe. So, they should be rewarded.
