    F-35 is supposed to be stealth, it turns out to be extremely expensive garbage. Taxpayers should be angry at Lockheed

      I mean it’s stealth in one spectrum. Evidently the geniuses who designed the flying Cybertruck didn’t consider other spectrums like thermal.

      Taxpayers are too stupid to grasp numbers this big.

      They only care about the wealth tax on people who make more than 400k a year. That’s a number they can understand cause it’s roughly a house.

      Even though the twats who vote for this rarely hit that level of income.

      The F-35 was designed from the start to be a revenue stream. Everything you hear about it is pure, unadulterated marketing wank.
