Cold Spring - Trump is now budgeting $54 billion to build up the military. For sure, this is a great day for the military-industrial complex and wall-street elitists to ravage tax dollars. But where is Trump's trillion dollar infrastructure package for airports, roads, and bridges to create jobs, jobs, and more jobs for the working class? This looks like a big league win for the alligators in the "swamp," and an even bigger loss for the "forgotten" working class who seem to be forgotten again.

An Associated Press article Feb. 27 states, "The White House says President Donald Trump's upcoming budget will propose a whopping $54 billion increase in defense spending and impose corresponding cuts to domestic programs and foreign aid."
