There are serious problems in the way we allocate spending.
A half dozen critical problems can be solved by attacking the problem from that direction.
For one thing we keep building Abrams tanks that the army doesn’t want or need.
We’re unable to manufacture critical surface to air missiles. Go down this rabbit hole and follow the first half dozen branches.
We keep hemorrhaging money on the f35
The military has been trying to shift to small and nimble for years. There’s a specific plan and playbook. Somehow the spending doesn’t follow the desired strategic direction.
Fucking cyber. Offense, defense, we got nothin. Train, recruit, retain.
Take three steps fixing the way we spend, then come back and we can talk about spending more.
