Can't help but wonder what the fuck the trillions of dollars has been doing all these years if not buying weapons
Good to know the US can't even get its military right, though.
- MrDrMcCoy 7mo agoThe problem is precisely that those trillions have been spent buying "better" weapons. What they should have been spent on is factories. All the lessons of WWII have been forgotten.
- JoBrad 7mo agoI agree that the US is wildly overpaying for what it gets, but from what I can tell we are directing that money to US-based factories. Just because those factories are also producing improved weaponry doesn’t mean they can’t produce more basic ammo, albeit at lower volume. We don’t need full-scale production capacity when we’re not in a large-scale war.
- MrDrMcCoy 7mo agoMy point is more that we're not building factory capacity for the sorts of sustained output a large war would require.
