Another great post, Kelly! As a long-time federal employee, now an A&AS contractor (to assure the next generation is prepared to take over what some have called “the keystone” of deterrence), I have seen pretty much everything referenced. While I can claim some small successes, I have been warned numerous times to leave certain things alone - often due to the “special interest” of a member of Congress, or a “big contributor” (usually to a Democrat or Democrat-favored interest). So, nothing you said was surprising or shocking. Hopefully the slash and burn will still allow some judicious assessment and cost/benefit analysis - especially for those short-term projects that have a definite near-term completion with mid-long term benefits.

Mahalo!
