Soldiers are Short Handed Regarding Army Spending

Abstract

In my opinion, Army spending is a major ethical issue facing the Army today. Soldiers are not receiving what they should for the amount of money the Army has been spending since the global war on terror started in 2001. With this in mind, I would like to share my thoughts on why I feel soldiers are being short handed when it comes to, equipment issues, training issues; as well as the money the Army is spending on Government contracts, compared to what they are paying the individual soldier. Remember, these thoughts I am going to discuss are my opinions only and in no way show any disrespect to the decision makers for the US Army.
