This New $7 Billion Warship Is Part Of The US Response To China's Military Buildup
• http://www.businessinsider.com, Robert JohnsonLooking a bit like an old Civil War Ironclad, the $7 billion DDG 1000 USS Zumwalt will focus on land attacks, relying heavily on its advanced stealth technology to slip in close to shore before unleashing its massive onboard arsenal.
Looks like another navy boondoggle designed to funnel huge amounts of money into some people's pockets rather than construct successful warships. Of course, I am opposed to the imperial industrial/military complex and its' doctrine of perpetual war. Think of all the good non-threatening things that money could be spent on meeting serious needs for restoring infrastructure, industry, and humanitarian concerns. A paranoid and dying regime that has surrounded itself with enemies within and without by deceiving, robbing, and killing everyone will squander a nation's resources building military might, vast police forces, and ever more prisons. Uncle Sam is a psychopath worthy of the guillotine!
