Sorry guys, we blew all that money on free health care and student loan forgiveness. Maybe our “cheap immigrant labor” can dig the holes for the rich folks’ nuclear fallout shelters a few feet deeper....
There never has been a defense except for a mutual destruction. Reagans Star Wars had a lot of benefits, but large-scale missile defense wasn't one of them. Story other than YouTube... Link
"Star Wars" was 99% a psy-op which was 100% successful in its effort to get the USSR to spend itself into bankruptcy. Minimal weaponry was actually developed with dollars so designated.
"Smart Rocks"? "Brilliant pebbles", orbital weapons stations? Airborne laser systems?
All still just pipe dreams.
People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.
Not to mention that while we've spent the last 20 some odd years fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan... Russia and China have spent most of their defense dollars on missile technology, and are some 5 years ahead of us on hypersonic missile technology.
Due to classification, we have no idea what the current capabilities of missile defense is.
Despite was Happy Crapstar and Alex Jones can lead rubes to believe
This^^^As well as outside of a few need to now circles, really have no idea what the field launch ready Russians, Chicoms etc missle technology actually is
Even at the state we’re in now we are still better off than the rest of the world. Buying crap we don’t need and doing things most people in the world can’t even imagine. We are so bad off that if you buy a yacht there is no available space for it. Rough country we live in. Edk
