Re: {OT} Weapons development funds weren't a part of the $787 billion stimulus

pretty ignorant of economics you are. Military costs money, it does not "Creat" anything. Schools make the "creators-inventors" Businesses that give a long term return are investments. Manufacturing gone to cheap labor is a main issue so many are out of work, factories closed, jobs are lost, towns go broke. There are better ways to spend to benefit more.

More weapons, bullshit, look at Russias rusting fleets and rotting weapons. You dont rebuild an economy on a 30 million$ tank that need constant work. That puts few to work, overpays a few and provides no payback. You want payback so you put money into what gives a return for the future and puts alot back to work. Schools, infrastructure, companies to manufacture here, not overseas. Incentives for companies to hire many. Guns are an economic waste. Guns-war, have broken many a nations banks, learn some history GI joe.

I would agree with you on the manufacturing part but that's about it. Japan tried the same thing with their infrastructure and it didn't do anything but put them in debt.
