Can't wait for it to go billions over budget

[-] alcoholicorn@lemmy.ml 26 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Already is!

In 4 years, projected budget increased by 37% (30 billion) timeline got pushed back 2 years.

If it continues to extend 2 years for every 4, and budget increases by 37% every 4 years, it'll be done by ~2040 and cost 380 billion.

Must be amazing heading one of those companies

"Hey, investors are demanding a higher return this year due to inflation. You're gone if they aren't satisfied."

"Ah shit... alright get Lindsey Graham on the phone. Tell him I need him to write In another $100B to the defense budget..."

They literally just print money and no one in congress is ever gonna question it or say no for fear of being reported as "not supporting national security" or whatever

Dogshit country

So stupid too

Putting aside morals and such of nukes, the terrestrial ICBMs are totally unnecessary when subs already exist and are out in the oceans carrying warheads that can devastate any country on earth. Just scrap the dickwagging missiles and stick to the subs. But boomers love nothing else more than dickwagging, so, here we are.

And again, the entire premise is stupid, just saying how they take a stupid idea and exponentially make it stupider

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in !the_dunk_tank@www.hexbear.net, it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.
