“These continued fiscal constraints cannot be ignored,” Hagel - TopicsExpress



          

“These continued fiscal constraints cannot be ignored,” Hagel said in a statement. “It would be dishonest and irresponsible to present a [review] articulating a strategy disconnected from the reality of resource constraints. A strategy must have the resources for its implementation.” The review’s release coincided with that of President Barack Obama’s new budget proposal, entailing $600 billion in new spending initiative I find it hard to fathom exactly how far down the rabbit hole we are. The submission of a budget that ramps up spending on the welfare state within days of a DoD review that calls for drastic cuts to defense, the one undisputed legitimate function of a national government, has me wondering if our process can even be fixed. This is so blatantly political and anti-reality it defies explanation.
