		<description>The Pentgon is bankrupting America.  We are spending a trillion dollars a year for defense.  procurement waste is the problem. Procurement waste includes research, production and operations and maintnance accounts in the  p-50 and R-2 forms published in the DoD Comptroller website.  These billions can go to other things outside the defense department to make our country strong.</description>

		<description>I guess the biggest question here it - does the US really need this large of a defense funds regardless? How long has it been since the US was formally attacked?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I understand that this amount was built into by default, but many would question what it is even there at that level in the first place.</description>
