Who cares if we have debt. were number one and nobody has balls enough to ask for their money back. We take what we want and do what we want. My unit didnt get anything until iraq war and now theyve got all new vehicles and armor. We spent 750k just on our plasma tvs for the command center.

Being that I was in the Corps I seen first hand that plasma TV's aren't required for a war to go on, in my unit we had 27 Humvees, 4 worked properly, 12 had transfer case leaks, 3 had major transmission failures, 5 had major cosmetic problems (broken windshields, needed paint, etc.) and 3 had major electrical problems, that was on Nov. 25, 2002 the 2nd CEB shipped Jan 26, 2003 and the only thing we had for war was body armor.
