once again it doesn't even matter the project is still hundreads of billions over budget. also just the fact that we haven't spent the money yet changes nothing.
you lads don't like to differentiate when it comes to actually useful public spending like healthcare initiatives or education reform.
so why should I distinguish here? in fact you're right. that figure will likely INCREASE
keep coping. keep coping that its actually good spending and that its all a okay. keep coping while people die and can't afford healthcare. while logistics companies struggle on failing infrastructure
honestly this has to be a joke if you think it changes anything. smh
I'm done with this convo.
my point is that its fucking dumb pointing out uae when America does dumb things on a much larger scale. we deserve at least 10x edits lmap
also we use slave labor here as well. look into the prisons
you pointing out that 'actually we haven't spent the full 1.7 trillion yet... we're just 183 billion over budget rn and those are just lifetime costs is honestly so dumb and distinction that adds nothing else to the conversation and doesn't change the fact that literal air force pilots hate the damn thing and you guys are over here posturing endlessly
how is this site worse than Reddit lol.

the amount of defense propagandists is honestly sickening on this thread. how about you guys roll this hard for things that actually help the people and not some malfunctioning stealth jet
when we could easily just don't omit selling our current arsenal. do you guys realize how vast out arsenal already is! how deep our ties are economically to our allies? that we make guns too that sell way faster than jets? like why are you so attached to a failing jet project?
it's honestly funny. and then I have all the like Lockheed Martin employees just down voting me because they don't wanna hear that their prize project is actually garbage and more 'justified' defense spending lollololol.
you guys are insane if you don't already think our current k military is more than capable. I'm so sick of this arms race bullshit. you guys are fighting a ghost at this point. f35s ain't gonna scare china. it's not gonna scare russia. it's just bs. and by the way... diplomacy is a thing too. sooo we could always try that.
I'm just saying we don't need another fucking jet. we just don't.
