the enormous waste of the MIT, the result of a trillion dollar a year military budgets, that which must not be spoken.

Imagine so much excess military stuff that even small towns are showered with free war stuff, war ready armoured vehicles, projectiles of all kinds, ammo meant to rip other soldiers apart, all kinds of goodies meant for wars half a world away.

Free. Paid for by you and me.

What other country is so enslaved its military spending addiction that it's main media will not talk about it or criticize it?
