I wanna know what 1.5 trillion gets us. We made fun of the Russians and how their Oligarchs lied to Pooty about how "good" their shit was. Me thinks there's a lot of that shit going on with our defense contractors. Billion dollar THAAD Missile defense systems getting taken out by a supposed "inferior" enemy and it takes 3-4 years to build one. Yeah right. A billion dollars would buy a helluva a lot more flying weed eaters with C4 and piloted by an AI powered Raspberry PI and probably be more effective.
(but not really?)
