Looking at priorities

While it's clear the the Bush (hswib) proposed budget is not really serious it remains an interesting study in how it reflects the administration priorities. Many domestic programs are up for big cuts but there seems to be plenty of money for defense items that the Pentagon would just as soon put on the back burner like a network of survelliance satelites and a blue-sky upgrade of ground combat systems known as the
FUTURE COMBAT SYSTEM.
