More details emerged on the Budget Committee deal for military spending, skipping over sequestration-mandated cuts and increasing military spending by $22 billion in 2014, and $31.7 billion over the next two years.
Previously, the 2014 military budget was supposed to be capped at $498.1 billion, but now it is over $520 billion. This doesn’t include some $80 billion in additional spending on the Afghan occupation, bringing the overall Pentagon budget to $607 billion.
The plan aims to make military retirees pay some of the difference, cutting the cost-of-living adjustments for them to below the level of inflation. They will also require veterans to pay more into their requirement accounts.
Even though this is quite a bit more than the Pentagon was supposed to be able to spend, the Pentagon is still complaining its not enough, and that they had planned on an increase of $54 billion above the spending cap.
Millions wasted monthly in RACIST, ANTI-AMERICAN,TECHNO-THIEF SOUTH KOREA…WHY?
of course you give thumbs down–you are brain dead traitors–come TO SK AND OBSERVE FOR YOUR SELVES–THEY HATE OUT F GUTS AND EVERY POLL TAKEN THERE HAS PROVEN IT ALSO–FACT
Having misplaced some $3.3 trillion between 2001 – 2004 under the financial stewardship of Dov Zakheim – Israel First Zionist and ordained rabbi – the Pentagon continues to provide luxurious accommodations and facilities to high ranking officers, buy weapons of dubious utility at spectacular cost, operate 1,000 bases worldwide, and shortchange the troops and veterans whose lives were at risk. The malign hegemony continues…
Of course they'll erase the cuts. The mafia can't lose.
The real reason they are trying to rush thru the DoD budget without discussion or amendments is so they don't have to publicly explain themselves.

Of course the cuts to food programs, Head Start, housing and home heating assistance are going right ahead. Only the monsters are exempt from financial limits.
They said they will TARGET RETIREES PENSIONS–SURE SO THEY CAN KEEP RACIST-ANTI-AMERICAN, TECHNO-THIEF SOUTH KOREA IN OPERATION..FACT
