I had a retired military buddy at work who told me it was one of his annual task to burn through supply, so they wouldn’t lose funding.
I still get amused when I think about him reinacting them spending weeks on end bored AF and snacking, while wasting millions of rounds of ammo, and tossing hand grenades
yes, but it’s unrelated. the US could afford all three, but the military protects wealth, while social welfare releases the pressure on ppl to be exploited to generate wealth and health funding lowers the amount of wealth they can siphon off.

I’ve heard stories of people burying entire tanks.
Funny. But also very stupid and wasteful.
So they raise the military budget, and cut all social welfare, and health funding. 🇺🇸
