IKR! Think of all the babies who could've been vacuumed up to death, or surgically-mutilated genitals of the mentally ill that could've financed for the same amount!

52 because Hill has a squadron deployed currently. So that was all they could generate.

I'd much rather see my tax dollars go towards this than go to fund Tyrone's 23rd consecutive month of welfare fraud.

Biggest boondoggle in history. Almost completely indefensible. Ironically, the only value it actually had was creating spending/demand in the aftermath of the financial crisis. As a standalone military project, nobody should support it.


Should we thank Obammy? I seem to remember Trump pitching a bitch and getting involved in some of the cost overruns on these lucrative defense contracts.

Always amazes me as to how many people respond or give their $0.02 with such confidence in these threads, when they don’t know the first thing about the subject.

I hope it stays "a thing" for a while. Makes it easier to identify the idiots.
