Increase

Agree

Increase, but only after our deficit is drastically reduced

Palin has expressed concerns about the national deficit in the past, and it's plausible that she would support increasing military spending only after the deficit is reduced. However, her primary focus has been on a strong military rather than fiscal conservatism.

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead
