There are about 300 million US citizens. 21.9 billion split evenly is $73 per person.

And this is a multi year contract.

It’s a lot of money, but not a huge amount divided across the population. This money likely also generates ancillary US jobs so the cost to tax payers might not be as bad as it sounds.
