Only a mere trillion? The US is $32 trillion in debt. What's a few hundred billion on nuke subs?

@BizSuitStacy The US has 330 million people. Australia has 26 million.
Totally crazy debt amounts, for both countries.

Stop whining. Australia is getting the "insider price" and low rate financing. America can't help it if you can't make your own boats.

Yeah.. Now dont get me wrong Diesel powered subs in this day and age are like ordering a Cavalry charge. If you are going to have subs, Nukes the way..
But these are part of a plan to put pressure on China that is part of US policy, Not Australian. We likewise dont need expensive, underperforming F35s..We need the kind of defense systems that make it too dangerous and costly to attack us. Not give us the ability to attack other across the globe. American defence policy is an arm of American foreign policy. And we have a vastly different relationship with China than America does.😷

@whowasthatmaskedman Different foreign policy but we will be dragged along with the US as they try to assert their superiority.
The US wants to be seen as the only superpower, Australia will cow tow to them.

@Gusman Sadly thats true for now. Politicians have a bad habit of running at least a couple of decades behind reality...Thats why I prefer to work with the numbers, rather than "opinion".😷
Yep, selective spending alright.

If they keep that up, they can sick "We ALL live in a nuclear submarine...."

Money can always be found. Esp in these times where Russia is acting out and china is antagonistic, there's almost no excuse to be caught off guard with a crappy military

Everyone has to please NATO -. The US military.
All countries bow to the biggest bully. It's America.

@Roundandroundwego With the woke type ideology put into our society and all parts of the government and a place they sure don’t need to put it in to but it is anyways which is our military. They are wearing our military. It affected the society so much that the military is having recruitment issues. It’s just a matter of time before someone takes this weakened country over and I bet it will be the same country that put these movements in motion . I’m sure there are conspiracy theories out there that will explain it all. The Chinese are actually brilliant. They infiltrated us with all the chaos that is happening in the US to weaken and soften us.
