Here is some more details of how your military industrial complex is killing you @Napoleon . THis is in addition to the previous post i made about lavish military spending here
http://www.thecoli.com/posts/11259550/

ANyway this is how other NATO countries who followed the U.S.'s lead (namely under pressure) are realizing that it;s not a good model. THis is a simple example about the F35 as i posted earlier. Both Canada and Australia are on the brink of pulling out of the deal but America's dumbs ass is pushing full speed ahead.

  • Canada:

Bon apetit, b!tches :mjpls:

The real traitors are the ones who bankrupted this country and the ones that sought to develop their businesses and corporations with overseas help because it was cheaper, instead of getting back to the board and developing a proper solution so as to give every American a piece of their pie – everyone who can wants to be a billionaire I guess. But alas, hardly anyone talks about them, much less prosecute them. Oh well, it is what it is:
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Let's go back to blaming the average Joe's for not being true to a nation in which the most powerful take advantage of everybody they can in the name of globalization.

Edit: Moreover Titles are given to those who work to achieve real goals (such as quality and efficiency), not to those whose purpose is the Title itself. So if number one is what you wish to achieve then you ought to do your part and help as many americans as you can so they can do their part. Absent of worries about who's number one and who's not.

Is this thread about that though?

I would assume it is since the financial crisis and the Iraq-Afghanistan fiasco did a real number to the country, much more damage in fact than Obama care or any other public programs. Thus seriously upsetting chances of growth for the US for years to come.
Or maybe I'm wrong and there's no connection. In which case I did not mean to derail the thread breh, my apologies :wow:

Military spending is a huge issue with the U.S. government IMO. And this is coming from a Military veteran. The spend lavishly without control. The U.S. (#1)'s defense budget is 3 times more than their next competitor, China (#2) and 6.5 times more than the #3 (Russia)

Am im not saying to dramatically cut the military budget but im saying avoid sh!t like this
  1. THe Commanche helichopter program http://gizmodo.com/the-u-s-spent-7-billion-developing-this-helicopter-it-1666807286
  2. The X-35 fighter aircraft program - Basically spent $200 Billion (yeah with a B) on an aircraft that has run over budget, is 10 years behind schedule and still not ready to deploy (plenty of articles to read about that debakle)
Yet education cost is enslaving students for life to the point where people dont study. A lot of your engineering workforce is based in India. A lot of you rmanufacturing is being done in China. You have an uneducated workforce who have high bills, high standard of living and want premium jobs to pay for it while they arent qualified for said jobs.
