I'm not even going to read that tripe.
This is the wealthiest, most powerful nation on earth. The only way either the Navy or the economy collapses is because the billionaires see profit in it for themselves.
We have the means to easily pay for everything, but the greedy bastards calling the shots want it all for themselves. If the shits who have stolen all the income of this nation paid like they did between 1945 and 1970, the debt would be obliterated in a few years and we could have universal healthcare, childcare and elder care.
That will never happen until we party like it's 1795. Even then, some other megalomaniac will hijack it and leave us in a reign of terror.
If you don't know my references, you are sadly lacking basic history education.
And they do... So what's your point?
