    "Oh yeah? Well, the Houthis are gonna find the fuck out why we don't have free healthcare! It's because we need to spend millions of dollars per missile, and that missile doesn't even do what it's meant to do most of the time, and is vulnerable to missiles/drones that are either too good (hypersonic), or not good individually but can be made in the thousands, which is what all our enemies use! Take that, terrorists!"
