Here’s a crazy though, John: Instead of spending a billion $$ a week on war, bring the soldiers home. Spend a portion of that money on homeland security and intelligence and more police. Safer streets and cities—more police back to work. Spend another portion on infrastructure. Safer roads, tunnels and bridges and tons of people back to work. No new taxes, no more brave soldiers killed or maimed for an unclear purpose. Oh I’m sorry, there I go making sense again…never happen in Washington.
