Another bureaucracy to handle the bureaucracy. Managing the budget is already the governments job. We don't need any special task force. We need these damn guys to do their job. Creating the special task force is a way to give the appearance of them doing their job.

How about we start cutting the mother of all pork... Defense spending. We're paying more on defense now than we were during the Cold War and I find this quite unconscionable. Are we any safer now for it? Has something like the quickly discontinued F22 made us any safer? I don't think so.

I find it sickening that we spend more on defense than all other countries COMBINED.

Well--things are more expensive now than they were then, and we are the country most vulnerable to attack by those who, in a sense "envy our freedom".

Although I would suggest that there's so much waste and corruption on government spending that the defense budget could be cut considerably if this were eliminated.

Good luck eliminating it. You're asking crooks to tell other crooks not to be so crooked.

I think we do have a stewardship to preserve freedom against any enemy. But we really need to examine everything because it is all ridiculous. Sure, that stuff is expensive, but cmon. And our soldiers are worth more than they are paid. We should be able to pay our forces better and provide the same or better defense for less budget.
