  1. All military projects are wasteful since the US military ain’t shit!!! All it does is start shit and throw weapons around so that each entity involved has the means to continue to kill each other. What is the point in all of that? Oh, my bad!!! To continue to make billionaires out of the makers of the weapons of war as well as the congressional shits that vote to continue funding this shit!
