Step forward the greatest boondoggle in the history of the world.

The US warfare state - now costing a 1000 billion a year...add up the last 50 years of excess funding for this octopus and you will
get at least 36,000 billion

And with all this dosh, they cannot built a decent airplane - see F35 and boeing 737 max

how does 25 aircraft carriers all over the world "defend america" ?

it doesn't - they are there to defend imperialism and crush equal rights and justice by supporting arse-holes like netanyahoo

Will there be massive downsizing and layoffs in this bloated behemoth that cannot, like their little proxy, the IDF, win a war to save itself... i think not.

No my friends - this will not be touched - probably increased as the cancer that is donald trump metastisizes to infect the body
politic and cause the death of a functioning society.

The response from the US navy.


Aircraft carriers are indispensable combat platforms. With their air wings, these mighty, mobile, maritime air bases offer a unique combination of versatility and force, enabling the nation to project air power across the globe without the constraints of basing rights and geopolitical borders.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT
 
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT
Something you know absolutely nothing about and are unlikely to for the rest of your life , as you luxuriate in a flood
of militaristic propaganda about how great your armed forces are, and what an exceptional country the us is.

Anyway, as expected, you miss the point - the pentagon cannot even do a proper audit and "loses" billions all the time

The usual ad hominem logical fallacy employed when running out of logical argument.

Ad hominem (Latin for 'to the person'), short for argumentum ad hominem, refers to several types of arguments that are usually fallacious. Often currently this term refers to a rhetorical strategy where the speaker attacks the character, motive, or some other attribute of the person making an argument rather than the substance of the argument itself. This avoids genuine debate by creating a diversion often using a totally irrelevant, but often highly charged attribute of the opponent's character or background. The most common form of this fallacy is "A" makes a claim of "fact", to which "B" asserts that "A" has a personal trait, quality or physical attribute that is repugnant thereby going off-topic, and hence "B" concludes that "A" has their "fact" wrong – without ever addressing the point of the debate. Many contemporary politicians routinely use ad hominem attacks, some of which can be encapsulated to a derogatory nicknames for political opponents used instead of political argumentation. (But modern democracy requires that voters make character judgements of representatives, so opponents may reasonably criticize their characters and motives.)


I am actually a marxist, but i do not expect a lightweight like yourself to know anything about a data-driven scientific study of history.

The puff piece you posted is a nonsense - it actually supports what I say - all about "adversaries" who do not exist as such.

Michael Hudson (born March 14, 1939) is an American economist, Professor of Economics at the University of Missouri–Kansas City and a researcher at the Levy Economics Institute at Bard College, former Wall Street analyst, political consultant, commentator and journalist. He is a contributor to The Hudson Report, a weekly economic and financial news podcast produced by Left Out.

Hudson graduated from the University of Chicago (BA, 1959) and New York University (MA, 1965, PhD, 1968) and worked as a balance of payments economist in Chase Manhattan Bank (1964–68). He was assistant professor of economics at the New School for Social Research (1969–72) and worked for various governmental and non-governmental organizations as an economic consultant (1980s–1990s).

Hudson has devoted his career to the study of debt, both domestic debt (loans, mortgages, interest payments), and external debt. In his works, he consistently advocates the idea that loans and exponentially growing debts that outstrip profits from the real economy are disastrous for both the government and the people of the borrowing state as they wash money (payments to usurers and rentiers) from turnover, not leaving them funds to buy goods and services, thus leading to debt deflation. Hudson notes that the existing economic theory, the Chicago School in particular, serves rentiers and financiers and has developed a special language designed to reinforce the impression that there is no alternative to the status quo. In a false theory, the parasitic encumbrances of a real economy, instead of being deducted in accounting, add up as an addition to the gross domestic product and are presented as productive. Hudson sees consumer protection, state support of infrastructure projects, and taxation of rentier sectors of the economy rather than workers, as a continuation of the line of classical economists today.


Footnote : Hudson is the god-son of Leon Trosky.

Robert Paul Wolff (December 27, 1933 – January 6, 2025) was an American political philosopher and professor emeritus at the University of Massachusetts Amherst.

Wolff wrote widely on topics in political philosophy, including Marxism, tolerance (against liberalism and in favor of anarchism), political justification, and democracy.

Robert Wolff was born in New York City on December 27, 1933. He graduated from Harvard University with a B.A., M.A., and Ph.D. in philosophy in 1953, 1954, and 1957 respectively.

Wolff was an instructor in philosophy and general education at Harvard University from 1958 to 1961, an assistant professor of philosophy at the University of Chicago from 1961 to 1964, associate professor and then professor of philosophy at Columbia University from 1964 to 1971, and then, at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, professor of philosophy from 1971 to 1992, professor of Afro-American studies from 1992 to 2008, and professor emeritus since 2008


So comrade have you read any of these guys, or Karl Marx or Fred Engels ?

I very much doubt it.

Are you Random guy? That was one of his favorite lines.

Not ad hominem at all. Anybody with the slightest knowledge of military tactics knows that aircraft carriers are essential to our Navy and only a complete brain dead cretin(You) would argue differently.
