Blog Six-Review of Blog: Hello, Texas
Controversy in $ -"Texans in Congress say they’ll keep backing fighter project despite massive cost overruns"
By Linda Nguyen
There were several good points throughout the blog that shows how Congress were wasting money instead of being productive in the research of the F-35 lighting II aircraft; however, I’m inclined to think that the cause is worth the research but the excessive amounts of money spent today would supersede the aircraft's ultimate outcome. In other words I agree that the $1.4 trillion dollars spent will never be repaid in the delivery of supplies.
The Pentagon, the highest level of security and political era how could this level of stupidity exist? We all depend on the Defense department to provide daily security for all Americans and still there’s not one or two technicians’ that could design an aircraft to support the all 3 branches of military with the supplies needed to protect the USA.
I disagree that congress it trying to pursue their goals, I believe that Winslow Wheeler (analysis at the Center for Defense) stated it best when he said, “The Pentagon bit off more than they could chew by trying to make one jet that could do so much”. The fact that the Pentagon has no backup plan in place is really a frightening thought.
I think that the blog was good and the only thing that I would have done differently would be to list the amounts of money that was spent, list some the names of the people that were directly involved in the discussions making and give the purpose for the F-35 Lighting II aircraft as well. (To replace the America Cold War-era fighter jets that’s behind in technology).
