We don't need ALL that
We don't need ALL that cash
I don't see any reason not to pour alla that money for outdated systems down the tubes.

The Defense Budget Spills Forth
There is a reasonable $1.7 billion for the next generation of unmanned aerial drones and an unreasonable $42 billion for anachronistic fighter planes. As social, education and health care programs are being squeezed, the Pentagon is asking for $9 billion to build a missile defense system that does not work yet.
The waste easily runs into the tens of billions of dollars, making Congress's haste this week all the more outrageous.
