Defense News: White House asks for $11 billion more for Navy, Marine Corps spending
WASHINGTON — The Navy and Marine Corps’ budget would grow by more than $11 billion next year, the most of any of the military services, under the Biden administration’s new $842 billion defense spending plan, according to budget documents from the White House’s Office of Management and Budget.
The Navy and Marine Corps’ budget would increase from the $244.7 billion Congress enacted for fiscal 2023 to nearly $256 billion in the next fiscal year. The new money would fund improvements to shipyards, submarines and upgrades to the fleet to make ships more lethal and survivable.
“The budget proposes executable and responsible investments in the U.S. Navy fleet,” the White House said in a budget overview document released last week. “The budget also continues the recapitalization of the nation’s strategic ballistic missile submarine fleet while investing in the submarine industrial base.”

WNU Editor: The Navy and Marine Corps’ budget would increase from the $244.7 billion Congress enacted for fiscal 2023 to nearly $256 billion in the next fiscal year. It looks like a huge increase. But when you take into account inflation, it is actually a decrease.

Inflation caused by COVID spending caused by Democrats
and Trump tax cut for the wealthy?
again: if you dislike what the post states tell us why and stop acting like child by calling names.
Whomever is in power doesn't matter when the whole economy is to print new money out of thin air instead of paying back national debt. But all of that is boring and nobody wins elections with that. So wherever were going, were fucked.
12:20 Stop acting like a client for a wealthy Democrat patron.
Look at the 11:23. I said Look. You didn't look. You glanced and went all emo. If your emo were an emetic, you would be clean as a whistle and having severe pain form dry heaves.
Now look @ 12:13

COVID (adjective)

Where is the name calling?
Now about the Trump tax cuts. I can never convince you. Ever. You will never, ever learn calculus. It is a religious an article of faith for you to not learn certain things ... like calculus. I told you you could learn what you needed to know in 6 weeks or thereabouts. 468 weeks later here we are. You are still ignorant about calculus, supply & demand curves, and how to maximize government revenues.
Tax rates went down; government revenues went up.
In the average adult human, the brain represents about 2% of the body weight. Remarkably, despite its relatively small size, the brain accounts for about 20% of the oxygen and, hence, calories consumed by the body
If DC and America are analogous to the brain and human body, then there is a right size for the amount of GDP/revenue for the government to consume. Consume more than that and the body withers and then it is unable to support the greedy brain.
I hold you in the highest disregard.
11:23 not 12:23
