View Full Version : Defense Secretary to Open All Combat Jobs to Women
“As the U.S. military ends its long effort to consider how to more fully integrate women into combat roles, a dichotomy has emerged between the two services likely to change the most: The Marine Corps has pressed its case publicly to keep some jobs closed, while the Army has not yet disclosed its research or preferred plans.”

Question: Is there a correlation between funding levels and the amount of push back by the USMC to social engineering, or is it simply that cuts are cuts? :munchin

U.S. military spending has dropped from $691 billion in 2010 to $560 billion in 2015.
That is a cut of 131 Billion, I wonder where that money went, most likely not towards paying down the deficit but more than likely towards government giveaway programs.
The gutting of our military is certainly one thing the dems excel at. And meanwhile the folks that control the purse strings sit idly by watching it happen.

How can they justify paying for the extra time and training needed for female candidates to compete with males? :confused:

Why don't they just put the women on high doses of gear?
Have to level the playing field.
Testosterone matters.

The ends justify the means. Besides it's not their money. It's the taxpayers.
Thank you, by the way.
