Default Speaking of weird weapons...

Isn't the military one of the biggest single employers in the US? What do
you think our economy would look like if it wasn't there?

You aren't *really* that dumb are you?

Well, I suppose we have our own ways of wasting billions of tax dollars
on our military.


Harry, do you take *yourself* seriously?

For the money we've *wasted* on the military in Iraq, we could have
rebuilt New Orleans, fixed the levees for real, made many needed
infrastructure improvements all over the United States, provided more
funding for S-CHIP, and sent thousands of needy students to college.

The worst thing this country has done since 1945 is waste so much of its
precious resources on the military. We could have done just as well with
much less. Might have kept us out of Vietnam, might have kept us out of
Iraq.

Spending unnecessary money on the military is worse than pouring it down
the drain.
