I think that going into Afghanistan was justified. Iraq was debatable, but since we are are there, it would be a disaster to pull out and leave the place is chaos. I think we should do everything we can to support  the troops with what ever supplies they need to do the job and keep them as safe as possible. The first priority at home should be supporting the veterans. More should be spent on upgrading the Veteran's Administration. I know that a lot of you on vision2020 do not agree with supply side economics and Arthur Laffer.  You may think it is an oxymoron, but it makes sense to me. I believe a tax cut will stimulate business, put people back to work and expand the economy. A tax increase will do the reverse.
