I'd rather not take it as a given that we are going to spend $1T on our nation's next war plane. That it is potentially ineffective further compounds what surely must be a disastrous waste of a considerable portion of our nation's financial resources. The $3k cost per person of a $1T plane makes me feel inclined to think about what else could be done with that kind of money. So, while drones might be a "better" way for the military to spend $1T, I think it's worth entertaining the idea that there might be a better way for a nation to spend that money. Like, say, on education.
