Defense Spending
Re “Proposed Boost in U.S. Defense Budget Would Benefit State,” Jan. 5: I’m saddened to see my hard-earned tax dollars being squandered to build up our already awesome military machine. With the demise of the Soviet Union and the evil empire leaving the United States the only remaining superpower, who’s left to challenge us? Every nation is hopelessly outclassed by America’s Army, Navy and Air Force. The United States has the power to obliterate any adversary or combination of adversaries within minutes.
