We need to be careful with slogans like "cut the military".
That could come to mean the health and benefits of our veterans and those serving.
The 1%'ers like General Atomic, Raytheon, KBR, Halliburton, Blackwater, etc..should be the focus and not a generalized cutting which could harm those, and the families, who are serving and have served.
