The US Navy has just commissioned its newest Virginia-class nuclear attack submarine at a General Dynamics shipyard in Groton, Connecticut. Six more subs are under construction as part of a giant 28-vessel deal.

The USS South Dakota, a Virginia-class nuclear attack submarine, was officially unveiled on Saturday at Groton shipyard in Connecticut, where it was christened by Deanie Dempsey, wife of Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Martin Dempsey, local media reported.

I thought the same thing.  28 new submarines.... for what exactly?

Because the US LOVES to be able to kill brown people and cost is no factor in that regard. Health care for their citizens - can't afford that shit.

You do realize that if we don't forge ahead, we fall behind, correct?  There is a reason we need to remain the biggest swinging dick in the world.....unless of course you want to wax nostalgic about how great your 99 SkiDoo was. :news:

reckless spending given our deficit situation is crazy.  That 99 ski doo is still better than our enemies model T snowmobile.  As a country we are like the welfare family driving around in an escalade and not giving a fuck bout tomorrow, you know the people that the righties would be all up in arms over.
