Strength doesn’t come from unfettered spending. That actually leads to weakness.
When we spend uncontrollably on billion dollar boondoggles, the shooters don’t get bullets and the tanks and ships don’t get maintenance.
So, before you insult people and underhandedly claim they don’t want strength, you might want to grow up and realize that unlike what children believe, money doesn’t grow on trees and we need to spend wisely.
It is unwise spend everything on a handful of pet projects to the detriment of core functionality like bullets and maintenance.
The Navy is put buying billion dollar “littoral” ships and the Air Force is buying billion dollar bombers; both are out of control spending.
