When is enough going to be enough?

The prophet Larry James reports:
"President Bush unveiled his proposed budget, another recording setting development: the largest budget in our nation's history totals $3.1 trillion.

The plan seeks to cut spending on Medicare and Medicaid, boosts military spending and projects the deficit this year and next will hit near-record levels. Pentagon spending would rise 7.5 per cent to $515 billion, the 11th consecutive year of increases."

Seems to me there are moral and spiritual decisions being made along with the obvious fiscal ones in a budget document. If there's one thing history has shown us, it is that the constant escalation of military spending will not bring us (or anyone else) peace! It is time to stop this death spiral! Bring the troops home!
