Yeah, there is virtually no hope to reform ANY bureaucracy in DC, especially the military. They are held with such sacredness that it would be like even thinking of making cuts to health care in Canada. Until that empire mentality changes, Defense will never be reformed

Great point. The debate often gets emotional with adherents on either side resorting to extreme counterfactuals.
Funny analogy to health care in Canada...
Gotta compare similar sacred cows. I was born and raised there, and I remember the massive demonstrations of the mid 90s when government actually made cuts to healthcare because of huge budgetary deficits.
Definitely, you're right about that. Military spending is one such sacred cow in the U.S.
