Excellent phrase and one we should use often. We have been saying ‘reduce the military budget’ and that is still applicable. This new (to me) phrase gets to hearts and minds better. Use both where we can.

It does seem that we live in an age of soundbites. And people are looking for Memes that send a quick message on sight.
