Billion Dollar Airplanes or Schoolbooks?

Anyone who denies there are big flaws in our military's procurement practices is light on scruples and probably the CEO of, say, Boeing (among others)... or maybe both.
Anyone who believes that if America had no military the world would live in peace and harmony is suffering from dementia. Like it or not, America needs a military that can defend and support our interests. The problem is how we buy it.

The problem is also determining who our actual enemies are and recognizing that the true attacks against the country are from United Corporate right, launching their attacks from within the halls of our Congress! To fight that, we don't need nearly as large of a military as we currently have. We really only need less than a third of what we now have. The larger the military under the prevailing war conditions within this country, the more likely that United Corporate will be able to turn them upon the People.
