If you had to pick just three government programs to receive full funding, which three would you go to the mat for?

On edit: I mean existing programs.

1. What I want? Or what * wants?
Me?

Education
Energy
Transportation

(our military spending exceeds even that of the rest of the world's collective spending so why we need to increase our own spending is frivolous and pointless.)

*:
Military
Corporate Subsidy welfare
NSA, et al

3. Education, Health Care, Education
With the amount of rampant stupidity plaguing our nation, I think we better double up on education.
