A fraction of our taxes?

Should the private sector control the Army, Navy and Air Force?

Should the private sector run the Interstate Highway System? Would you like to pay a 10 dollar toll every 50 miles? I wouldn’t.

Is it that you don’t read very well, or did you deliberately misunderstand what I said?

At least a third of military spending is waste, fraud, and abuse. Another huge chunk supports a huge, counterproductive civilian bureaucracy. Add the Interstates to legitimate military spending and the other legitimate functions of government, and it amounts to a fraction of our taxes.

I suppose you expected to fail when it went into competition with the USPS.
