I watch C-span
a lot and the
other night,
Sen.John McCain
was on about how
the American's
have been cheated..
It seems we have ordered ships in 2008 and they still are not
ready. The few that are, are not any good in a battle. NO ONE
IS OVER SEEING ANY THING!!!! Damn!!!
Money in the trillions is flying out the door. The ships are being
made in parts by several companies, one Lockheed.
This Lockheed is making ships and planes for Arabia,
for $ 11 Billion Dollars. To me this is un American, just greed.
Once I thought they were a good American Co. for investment.
check this site out on the ships the LCS Suppose to be a small
front runner ship. Lots of our Boy's will DIE.

Americans don't need ships in battles. In case of threat from some country, America will throw the bomb like she did in Japan. Conventional wars bring no victory to her (see Afganistan, Iraq, Vietnam etc..). However, the ships and other kind of military stuff is sold to other countries for a good profit.
ReplyDeleteI just read that Lockheed is selling to Iran. It's got to stop.
ReplyDeleteJust think if Countries wouldn't sell weapons, there would be less war.
We are getting a real cold blast 8-10 degrees. I am really frightened about TRUMP,
or German Drumpf. It's a game with him. Well, Happy Holiday, it's almost here.

It seems as if it's all a losing battle, this excess and mismanagement. All we can do is individually keep our dignity and morals and be the best humans we can be, every day, one person at a time.

ReplyDeleteHere I am thinking it is cold, and the weather is snow, ice, freezing rain,, but at least not in the zero to low teens, well Saturday will drop to the teens here in the Pacific North West. For now I am grateful for a warm hearth, a roof over my head, and food in the pantry, and a nice fire in the fireplace. I am blessed. Here is wishing you a warm hearth and a welcoming home, filled with love and a Wonderful Life.. sorry I just watched the old Movie with Jimmy Steward and Donna Reed, It's a Wonderful Life, a good morale to the story about greed and excess , and giving up hope,
Did you know there is some surprising facts about this movie,, I think you will like this one it goes along with the theme of your blog post today
THE FBI SAW THE FILM. THEY DIDN’T LIKE IT.
In 1947, the FBI issued a memo noting the film as a potential “Communist infiltration of the motion picture industry,” citing its “rather obvious attempts to discredit bankers by casting Lionel Barrymore as a ‘Scrooge-type’ so that he would be the most hated man in the picture. This, according to these sources, is a common trick used by Communists.”

We need an honest person to over see the budget and if our friend Jane was still alive she would be the perfect person She could get more for a dollar than anyone I ever knew. She was not cheap but very frugal about how the dollar was spent. Maybe I should go dig her up and have her cloned.
ReplyDeleteMost Americans are just trying to make it through to the next paycheck but I have to hand it to Trump he has declined the salary. I have always said the American people should vote on the salary, medical and pensions for elected officials. But that just me Kitty Justice. Peace
