re: #443 BunnyThief

With all due respect, where the F*** do you think those planes are made? And by whom?

Now, I don’t like the idea of defense money being a back-door jobs program, but it’s one way that the government fulfills its obligations AND boosts the economy.

Pick a number. A large number. We’ll call that the Defense Budget. Now, given that large number how do we best protect the country, now and in the near to medium term future?

Given this large number, you can buy X number of Raptors at $138M per or you can buy 8X F16s at $17M per. Is the country safer with 1 F22 or 8 F16s?
