This kind of argument is what's wrong with people voting the party line instead of voting with reason. Who the hell cares if Trump is right? Do what's right because you think it's right, not because of some petty political squabble.
I do not pretend to understand how complicated such an expensive program is and what all the effects of cancelling it would be, but based on what little I know it seems like it would be a good idea to cancel the program and put the funds into something more productive.
- ufmace 10y agoI agree that things have gotten much too politicized along party lines. I'm rather bemused at how many people and organizations seem to be willing to switch sides on issues depending on which party or candidate is pushing which position. I don't think we're going to solve the problems we face by being completely for or against any party or politician. Like I said in a cousin comment, I'd be concerned about what the future would be for aircraft if we did cancel this program. I'd hope to see a plan for what we're going to do for the aircraft we need to buy and replace over the next 30 years before they moved forward with cancelling it.
