Insane. Save $7 billion? That’s less than Stephen Chu can give away in a few days to Obama’s green energy cronies.
having served on board two carriers, the Ranger anf Kennedy, it’s sad when these machines are retired..
Seven billion bucks? Hell, the “stimulus” pissed away more than that on park benches and bike paths.
I think several Air Force Ones/Twos and multiple limos should be decommissioned. And staff the travels with Barack should be cut in half. Michelle’s vacations should be limited to places she can go on a Greyhound bus. Canned tuna should replace lobster. Congressional “junkets” should be severely restricted. Staff should be gut way back. And trips back to their home states should be paid by their state tax payers, not the U.S tax payer. If Camp David is not good enough for him, it should be open for developement.
Feel free to add to this endless list.
INSANE IS RIGHT!
I’m harboring serious doubts that it would save anything at all. They didn’t decommission the Enterprise because it would’ve COST more than the purchase price of the ship. That was 1991, things haven’t gotten cheaper since then.
You can't expect the administration to slacken its loot-shoveling, now can you? That would be un-Chicagolike.
We gots expenses.
