Defense and Welfare Programs: More Linkage Than Not.

Abstract

The impact of defense programs on the social agenda and the impact of social programs on our nation's ability to provide for national security are not considered wholistically. The argument is often advanced tha social programs are being cut to allow for growth in the defense budget as if the two areas were not constitutionally linked as well as interdependent. The essay explores the linkage of social or welfare programs and the nations ability to provide national security. (Author)
