NY Times: Obama’s Debt Plan Sets Stage for Long Battle Over Spending

Published April 14, 2011

With Obama's proposal to cut the federal budget deficit, with intentions of cutting it $4 trillion dollars in 12 years, many issues arose amongst both political parties. The one issue with this whole situation that really fluffed my feathers was the suggestion that our military personal are "non-essential," in turn facing pay cuts. I think this is absolutely and completely outrageous. Soldiers over in Afghanistan are fighting for our country and they may not get paid for putting their lives on the line for us? This goes for all military. I think it's disgusting. The government needs to get it's butt in gear because to honestly, to me, this is unacceptable.
