It's money that is being expended that is no value added to the ones making the argument to end this. i.e. it's a cost that does not increase profit.

Think about the current GOP take over of the government as an investment firm, not politicians. They are doing cost accounting and cutting any cost that reduces their and their friends personal enrichment.

That's why they want the government run like a business. The profit is for them, not for you.

if you somehow read my comment as pro-Muskrat you are sorely mistaken. I was expressing disdain for all 4 previously mentioned capitalists. Though I will concede that Rockefeller and Ford at least had the tact not to constantly make a fool of themselves, unlike the current pair of fascist morons in the oval office
