I guess the best thing would be if somebody really did all the work and laid out the total per aircraft and per program cost stuff for
planes
ships
etc

The problem of course is if you shared it with libs - they'd balk anyway and refuse to actually debate. They'd say stuff like "These numbers are wild approximations and they are deceptive." As if it matters much if the graphic says planes cost an insane $300b a year but number is "probably the much lower" but still insane $250b. And if you set out the numbers over 10 years - then they complain about stuff like inflation and many details about projects are unknowns.
It makes me think of how libs always think of military budgets as yearly. But they love to slime stuff like m4a by quoting the total huge cost over, say, 20 years.
I think lib responses can basically be boiled down to them taking full advantage of plausible deniability. They'll never admit to themselves or others that they're intellectually dishonest.
