“You cannot solve social problems by simply throwing money at them.”
-Ronald Reagan
One of his adages that I actually had to agree with to a great extent.
But when it comes to solving a military problem? Throw more money at it!
As it stands right now, for every 1 F-35, you could buy and operate 3 F-18E.
The other new fighter we have, the F-22, is so great that the pilots don’t want to fly it because its a deathtrap.
Yeah, lets keep throwing cash at them.
