Spend whatever necessary to protect sovereignty & security

Q: Do you support or oppose the policy: "More spending on armed forces"?

A: This is the federal government's primary responsibility. We should spend whatever is necessary to protect this nation's sovereignty and security. At the same time, we should demand accountability from defense contractors, just as we would from any other entity that does business with the taxpayers.
