Now add up all the other 2/20/200mil nickels and dimes across the DOD and what do you get?

The budget isn't all aircraft carriers and stealth bombers.

Maybe this is a good buy, maybe it's a bad buy. I don't know and I have no way of ever knowing. Just because the budget is big and the money is other peoples does not mean decision makers can be wishy washy about a hundred or two mil here and there. Everyone needs to care all the time. People like you and who share your "it's all pennies in the grand scheme" thought process at scale is the problem and why we're even having this discussion.

My point is if you worry about waste taxpayer money, you would not have 1 trillion budget in the first place

this is not on top of the list of "waste" things to worry about there are 20+ another reason and you pick this budget size its a weird hill to die on

potato3732842 OP
That attitude is exactly how we got to a 1-trilling military budget in the first place.

then you can start with project that eat the money most
You don’t know. You don’t have the time or knowledge to know.

You delegate that to people whose job it is to know.

But you keep delegating it to people who want to spend more.
