I’m astonished!
February 15, 2007
In 1956 it was the Cold War, and our national priority was defense, as it should be. Fast-forward a half-century, and my, how our priorities have changed! With the usual caveat that comparisons like this strongly depend on the comparison year selected, consider this:
Anyone who doubts that we are pushing the margin of the socialist envelope should look again. Assuming we are getting a valid comparison, always a good question, the chart begs the questions of whether we are adequately defended and whether our present allocation of national resources is appropriate for the times in which we live.
What do you think?
