Cato Institute and Heritage Foundation Debate Fred Thompson’s Military Policy Proposals

This is interesting.  A scholar from the libertarian Cato Institute firmly comes out against the proposals of GOP Presidential candidate Fred Thompson.  Here is the article and a rebut by former Sen. Jim Talent of Missouri who serves as a Fellow at the Heritage Foundation.  I think Thompson is about right.  I understand libertarian arguments against high Pentagon spending, but the reality is, it is always better to be prepared than not prepared.
