Listen to this interview with Donald Trump in 1987. Go ahead, I dare you...

There are members of Congress still serving today who helped create this situation. Has it gotten better? Of course not. It's worse. Look, for example, at the British Navy. As of 19 March 2016, there are 77 commissioned ships in the Royal Navy. 19 of the commissioned vessels are major surface combatants (six guided missile destroyers and 13 frigates) and 11 are nuclear-powered submarines (four ballistic missile submarines and seven fleet submarines). I doubt they could defend the English Channel with that. And last year they furloughed their army for two weeks at Christmas to save money.
Now let's be honest. Defense spending (US defending the rest of the world) is a drop in the bucket compared to entitlements. We better start focusing on our elected representatives. It's easy to get caught up in the "excitement" of Presidential politics, especially this year. But the problem is endemic at every level. Have you seriously looked yet at who is running for local offices? Are you paying attention yet? You better.
