“What do you have in mind?”

Honestly I don’t have an answer for that. But if it is not practical and actually effective then we don’t even need to spend the money. It is throwing money away just to help the MIC rape the taxpayers.

This age old myth that “We MUST spend money on defense!” even if the toys make absolutely no sense needs to end. If it is not practical and productive then we don’t need to even spend the money then.

It is no different than the money we wasted on the Ca high speed rail project. We should have never even spent one dime on it in the first place. Just like the MIC it was nothing but a money laundering scheme.

I was going to argue with you that we do need more ships and submarines. Then I remembered that the last $12B earmarked for submarines vanished, and no new submarines appeared, so... I can’t really argue. LOL!
