There are many instance when big weapons systems are utter wastes of money. Overkill. We need money to educate kids, take care of health and the environment, build roads, do good things for people and the planet. Weapons of mass destruction are not what we need to be spending our money on unless they're absolutely needed.

While Bushies fully fund gigantic weapons systems I notice our troops in Iraq dont even have the basic bulletproof vests needed despite the biggest defense spending increases in history. Also, I see vet benefits being on the table to cut and wounded soldiers being charged for food and made to wait hous for appointments. I also see troop morale in Iraq as being poor and the whole post-war poorly planned. These are what we should be trying to fix, not if Cheney's cronies get another 20 billion to build more experimental nukes to obliterate third world capitols.
