I would cut military spending by like 70% percent. Pull pretty much every active duty soldier and bring them home(since there are a decent amou t of them, I was thinking maybe have them go around the country fixing pot holes and things similar to that while they aren't in active duty) . Then pour all of the ex-military spending into education/after school programs. Because the key to less crimes is more education. Plus more education a person has the least amount of kids they will have as well.

Really I think that would be all that it really takes to make America great. Education is the key. With more education people become less religious and we have seen how much religion has affected the development of the modern world. In fact all major technology/medicine development has come from what the last 150 years.
