True. When you have bribed politicians the world over to spend their taxpayers money on F15's and F16's (instead of schools and hospitals) you do need the F22 to have that peace through superior bombing ability.
- 001sky 13y agoDoes this mean more f 35s? Even a worse decision ! The NSA has compromised communication and political speech in the Domestic USA, and unchecked its a far worse threat to freedom around the world. The US military is thankfully strong enough that it does not act out of small d!@k syndrome, which is why it is the most respected branch of the us government. Its approval ratings are >70%, while congress is ~10s and the media is ~20's. Insecure beuracracies are typically the most evil entities on the planet. Just like insecure b-team middle managers at work.

- 001sky 13y agoYou need to seperate people that use gear from people that handl the money to buy it, and the politicians that pursue their own agends, for selfish reasons. The US military is surprisingly competent at a managerial level in many ways. I wouldn't knee jerk react to a statement like that unless you have actuall experience with the matter, tho. I know it's not the first thought that comes to mind, and its certainly not the view taught to kids or promulgated in the media. YMMv.
