After decrying Mitt Romney's analysis of the United States' defense situation as "political" and "not born out by the facts," Sen. Carl Levin (D-Mich.), the Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, told reporters at a breakfast hosted by The Christian Science Monitor that the budget for the Department of Defense was sound -- but that if budget-reducing sequester were to take hold, it would be a "totally different ballgame."

Carl helps the MIC get rich thru fake wars and fear. He is a crook. He also wrote NDAA.
Can you imagine what a trillion dollars a year could do for America right now? Instead we have dumb, fake wars over oil.

To sum it up the guy said no but he is going to pass the buck to the statuss quo.

If the Military industrial complex can spend trillions of dollars annually you would think that by now they would have spent some of that money developing an alternative to oil instead of fighting for it.
Oh well guess we're all going to die.
