        Good. The military is so bloated. Long overdue to re-evaluate the money they’re given

        As much as we hate to say it, the Space Force was a good idea in that it combined all our space operations into one unit. Which will actually save money in the long run as long as we don't go beyond where we are right now.

        It should not be under the DOD. As much as I love it, Star Trek got that wrong.

        $350 billion those people lie about everything. The overall US military cost are $1.1 trillion every year.
