That said, I am not a fan of this current proposal with the increase in military spending.

Agreed.

I am okay with the cuts, but they need to be extended to defense as well. There's a lot of bloat that can be cut back without changing effectiveness. People just need to make the hard calls on cuts without thinking about kickbacks, donations, and lobbyists.
