So military spending can be wasteful.
I thought we agreed that a whole bunch of money
thrown at any agency by the govt. will produce waste.
There are a heck of a lot of good underpaid men and
women that deserve more money that do some of
the most difficult work of any US citizen. They
risk their mental health, their family structure- it is
a gigantic sacrifice.
And there are a hell of a lot of wasteful paper pushers
in the military. I know some of them. In the reserves
especially.
In general, as institutions get larger and complex,
oversight gets more difficult and waste occurs.
This is why I personally am
so fond of small businesses (like you run).
