Wisconsin:
While on a Town Hall meeting, President Barack Obama said that, the US troops are carrying too much of the burden in Iraq and Afghanistan and doing too many things that are more appropriate for civilians. From building schools to setting up justice systems, the military is taking all responsibilities and overworking.
Obama says the problem is that the US doesn't have a civilian effort as large as the military. He wants to change that by building up a "civilian expeditionary force" that can go into an area once the US military deems it safe to do the work of building roads, bridges and schools and setting up civil societies.
Obama concluded that's one reason he's increased military pay while holding the line on domestic spending.
