    Of course there are more than four, but an enormously disproportionate amount of our tax dollars go to four of them.

    20% goes to Lockheed Martin alone.

    General Dynamics swallowed up all of the companies I worked for in the first half of my career.

    You probably also think that because there are thousands of small farmers that they actually have any market share.

    The big fish are eating the small ones and getting bigger and bigger. This is what happens when you relax antitrust enforcement. Why do you think we keep getting involved in wars we have nothing to do with? These four have raked in billions facilitating the death of our children overseas for decades

    Economics and trickle down is working so great right? Republicans would drive us into slavery we gave them the reins. And yes it is political just look at Reagan and his policies and how they have affected us today

        So you only read the one part that you wanted to read?

        You’re cool with one company taking 1/5 of the defense tax dollars? That is a fact not an ideology or opinion.

        The consolidation of these companies is not an opinion or an ideology it is a fact. Reality

        Do you want to argue the points orrr…

            I almost feel bad for you now. You really don’t have a leg to stand on do you?

            So you’re cool with that right? 😂

            Do you work for one of these companies or something? Why are you being disingenuous?

            I have decades of experience in the industry and you think I’m going to get shut down by some little teenager with his opinions?

            Either concede or bring some good arguments. Otherwise I think you are a coward and probably 12
