Trump plans to ask for $716 billion for national defense in 2019 — a major increase

President Trump is expected to ask for $716 billion in defense spending when he unveils his 2019 budget next month, a major increase that signals a shift away from concerns about rising deficits, U.S. officials said. 

The $716 billion figure for 2019 would cover the Pentagon’s annual budget as well as spending on ongoing wars and the maintenance of the U.S. nuclear arsenal. It would increase Pentagon spending by more than 7 percent over the 2018 budget, which still has not passed through Congress.

DYI:  Ever wonder why it is so hard to get ahead financially???  The major culprits that are sucking money out of our pocket’s are:

• Military Industrial Complex
• Medical Industrial Complex
• Educational Industrial Complex
• Chronic deficit spending

The Military is sized up for world domination and as with all empires horrifically expensive sucking much needed monies for stateside infrastructure repair and replacement.  Instead military bases located all over the world along with a navy that commands ALL of the worlds’ oceans.

Medical Industrial Complex is in violation of the Clayton Act as an industry that has committed to price fixing and in violation of the Sherman Anti-trust Act as medical providers move from local to regional monopolies.  Big pharma through campaign donations it is illegal to re-import ethical drugs keeping prices artificially high.  In 1960 this industry absorb 4% of GDP today it is 20% escalating at a 10% growth rate. 

The cost of education from grade one through twelve has ballooned into a jobs work program for the Democratic Party – hence jobs are number #1, benefits #2, indoctrination #3, then finally some rudiment of an education that drives up the cost of real estate through ever increasing property taxes in support of ever demanding school districts.  Then off to college or trade school due to student loans has artificially “pumped up” the cost of education to the point of creating an army of debt slaves.

Deficit spending works just the same as printing money this newly formed debt increases the money supply thus increases the price level of all goods and services.  When disposable dollars are available for savings investing intelligently is required to outpace embedded inflation.  Add on high taxes it is miracle anyone has any level of savings.

When I grew up as a kid in the 1950’s and 1960’s Mom’s stayed at home to raise the children while the men worked.  My father raised 4 children plus his wife [Mom] and himself [Dad] all on a mailmen’s – non supervisory – paycheck.  We owned a house [quickly paid off] a car and plenty of food to eat.  After all of those expenses my Dad was able to save 10% to 15% of his income.  Today, not a chance both husband and wife work kids in day care [public schools] AND I’m now running into husbands [Dad’s] who have a part time job on top of their full time work.  Soon to follow the wife [Mom] having a part time job on top of her full time work as well.  This is unnecessary and outrageous.  I have in the past will continue to “pound the table” regarding these 4 huge areas of mismanagement – and a bevy of fraud – along with their solution in future posts.  You can count on it!
