This would buy alot of trains

Didn't even bother to read it. I already know it is US BS about coming up with some billion dollar new warplane. My gosh, they already have more military capability than anyone else can come close too. They can wipe out any nations military without hardly any losses of their own. Why do they need such dominance. Too take on the world and win. They are short of oil and they want to be able to take over all Arab states and control what they need to keep their SUV running.

It's not about military dominance. It's about feeding government money to the people developing and building the planes.

O>> 10 and a half year development cycle? O>> To replace the F-16, F-18, and Harrier, already dominant. O>> Gotta luv da guvmant...................both parties.

Another braindead liberal idiot. Take a look at the federal budget for

2004. You can check it out at the Office of Management and Budget at:

We spent $502B for the Department of Health and Human Services and $358.2B for the Department of Defense. The HHS budget is the fastest growing portion of the federal budget. Now do some research and figure out what makes up the HHS budget. Then realize these costs are not going down and they aren't debts we can ever pay off. They are expenses we will pay forever, unless we find a way to control them
