War huh! What is it good for?
Fucking unbelievable Profits!

The Littoral Combat Ship is also a far cry from durable. A more recent report says the ship is not expected to remain capable after taking a hit from an opponent, which is a significant problem for a naval vessel. Granted, it is not designed to carry on a full naval battle by itself, but it doesn't take an enemy warship to sink it. Instead, this $440 million ship can be knocked out of a fight by a single hostile cruise missile.
So - we have a jet and boat that cost us shit tons of money for nothing.
But thank god Meals On Wheels is getting cut!
Where is the outrage from the Repubs with this infinitesimal government waste ?!?!
Oh, it's for war and the shareholders....duh!
