Counterbudget aims to realign U.S. priorities and cut military spend

The National Urban Coalition releases Counterbudget a blueprint for changing priorities aiming to meet basic human needs with expanded spending on health education unemployment and Social Security while reducing defense. It proposes a 1972 military outlay of 60.2 billion falling to about 50 billion by 1976 and raises the poverty line through a cash assistance and negative income tax system.

Counterbudget 2 proposes vast uplift in education and jobs plan

The National Urban Coalition urges a substantial shift in federal priorities with a Counterbudget to expand employment and manpower training to 4.4 billion in 1972 and 8.3 billion by 1976. It calls for preschool funding, mass transit, and broader state local relief, proposing block grants and revenue sharing reforms.

Counterbudget argues deep cuts in military spending

The Counterbudget group urges cutting defense from 76 billion in 1971 to 60.2 billion in 1972 and to 50.4 billion by 1976. It argues spending is excessive for security and diverts funds from health welfare and job programs. It proposes a leaner 1970s force, greater allied burden sharing, and elimination of wasteful systems while preserving deterrence and modern tech. It also supports a reconversion program for workers affected by cuts and maintains foreign aid levels.
