95% of yearly US medical exams:

doctor tells patient to lose weight. patient does not comply, and is even heavier next year

no I'm talking about the part where poor Americans who join the armed forces go to foreign countries, are asked to kill people and sometimes die themselves

> I was just buying a laptop for my family and the prices of MacBooks here in Europe are utterly crazy.

they'll sell just fine in the US and parts of Asia

the EU is becoming poor, and its being reflected in the costs of imported goods

not one mention of Zumwalt or LCS in this article

you cannot talk about (re)building the military without discussing the decades and billions wasted pursuing pipe dreams and failed ideas

right now we are building an LCS that will be scrapped within a year of it being put to sea...we still have LCSs that even haven't had their keels laid...which will meet the same fate! say it out loud: "we don't want the LCS and will scrap them...can you build us eight more please?"

do you think the Chinese Navy is ordering boats they don't want?

and try spending some money on people, and I don't just mean better soldier pay...look at the pathetic physical condition of today's soldiers...what % of the armed forces are medically obese? go watch random military videos on youtube and see the guts hanging over the belts...its just pathetic
