FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda 
A new survey shows a large majority of Americans support cutting defense spending, including military personnel costs.
While they don’t support cutting military pay raises, they do want to raise Tricare and pharmacy fees, slow down growth in tax-exempt allowances, and cut military retirement benefits, according to a survey of 665 adults conducted by the Program for Public Consultation, the Center for Public Integrity and the Stimson Center.
Overall, 76 percent of those surveyed — 90 percent of those in Democratic congressional districts and 67 percent of those in Republican congressional districts — believe the defense budget should be cut, with those in Republican districts proposing an average 15 percent reduction and those in Democratic districts proposing an average 28 percent cut, said Steven Kull of the Program for Public Consultation.
Only 4 percent of those in Democratic districts and 15 percent of those in Republican districts wanted to increase military spending.
Asked how much could be cut, those surveyed said, on average, strategic and nuclear forces could be cut by 27 percent, ground forces by 23 percent, the Navy by 20 percent and the Air Force by 19 percent, Kull said.
