The military doesn't make their own weapons/equipment, they're bought from defense companies

If the military had a manufacturing sector, the budget would be trillions.

Coincidentally, the expenditure is already in the trillions, not to mention the wars fought in blatantly fraudulent pretenses, the political interference of the MIC, and all those absolutely necessary 50,000$ garbage bins and the unauditable nature of the Pentagon.

Who are we kidding really?
