"We get more dollar for dollar from the state department than from DOD,"
Your opinion based on what?
"you really think the state department is inefficient compared to the DOD"
Does it matter?
Having worked for both, YES I do
Have you worked for either?
They BOOTH need to be "audited".
I agree but cutting they are cutting the state Dept 28% and increasing the DOD 10% and that 10% increase ($54B) is the equivalent funding of several agencies.
No not really, the car companies always complain they are going broke, they loved their obsolescence and our government backed them. The disaster and retooling that occurred in 2008 brought them back to reality, they were decades behind other countries.
We are NOT talking about 2008
We are talking about NOW.
Do you know anything about the new regulations that Obama put into place that Trump wants to bring back to the levels BEFORE Obama's new ones?

" and increasing the DOD 10% and that 10% increase ($54B) is the equivalent funding of several agencies."
DoD has been cut every year under the sequester while other agencies GAINED in their budgets.

Love the theme of this thread. The title says what a majority of Americans want.
Elections have consequences - sounds good to say this in 2017.....
I think you are reading too much into the elections, I don't believe this is what most people wanted. They wanted Trump more than Clinton, the rest is conjecture, the polls indicated many people disliked the ACA and that is no longer true.
