Hell you could take double what Hartford gets, out of the military budget and put that into trades and the military would hardly notice. If my math is correct, 6 billion is not even 0.75% of the military’s budget from last year.

Yet it doesn’t occur to them to have DOGE check wether that money is spent responsibly. Wonder why.
We just randomly increased military spending by 150 BILLION this year.
That could have paid for a lot of trade schools
