Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.
This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. The cost of one modern heavy bomber is this: a modern brick school in more than 30 cities. It is two electric power plants, each serving a town of 60,000 population. It is two fine, fully equipped hospitals. It is some fifty miles of concrete pavement. We pay for a single fighter with a half-million bushels of wheat. We pay for a single destroyer with new homes that could have housed more than 8,000 people. . . . This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.
Too bad the Military Industrial complex has to go brrrr...
Just send them to the military graveyard in the desert and order 50 new ones :big-cool:
You might be joking but I’m positive they'll never fly some of these ever again
Give them to Ukraine
Ive driven by aircraft graveyards. It's always seemed so obscenely wasteful.

A good quote from a US president. Wild. But he's right.
I'll go with "What did the based department tell the military veteran teachers in Florida about their students" Alex!
