Of course it should. Any time you spend the money "raised" by the citizens for our military

whose toils and treasures are to support its burdens, instead of
the government which is to reap its fruits." James Madison
Let the people (Congress) vote on this war and then pay for it in real time in their lifetime.
Not someone else's.
"Each generation should be made to bear the burden of its own wars, instead of carrying
them on, at the expense of other generations" James Madison
Why does it seem like we are half assing the efforts to detroy ISIS?
Simple, because this is a half ass group.
Seriously, our government needs perpetual war.
It's the only thing distracting the American people from domestic issues.
Oh, and they, the (select few) make so so much money off of it.
