Space force * 1
    #26392709 - 12/20/19 04:10 PM (4 years, 3 months ago)

It's official bill just got signed.
Space force will be the 6th branch of the military and we're gonna grab aliens by the pussy.

My eight years in the Air Force was in Air Force Space Command.  They were talking about separating back then, but nothing ever came of it.  Trump is getting shit done.  :shrug:

Indeed.  Trump would rather give money to the military industrial complex than to Main St.

And what exactly does this fix? It’s a vanity project. There are no troops in space. We have almost no space based weapons because they are illegal under international treaty. Space doesn’t belong to any country. National sovereignty ends at 60 miles above the surface.

What is he getting done except creating more bureaucracy

When I was in Air Force Space Command I was on a team that launched a satellite into orbit that tracked real time weather over Iraq for Desert Storm, I was on a team that developed jam resistant ultra secure communications satellites, and I was on a team that purchased the next generation of GPS satellites.

I'm not sure why any of that should be under the Air Force.

Your TDS seems a bit out of control.

I’m not sure why it shouldn’t. You haven’t provided any rationale.

Maybe there's an argument to be made that the Army, Air Force, and Navy should be combined into a single service then.  I haven't given it much thought except that land, air, sea, and space are all kind of different.

That is not a rationale. Does the air force not do a good job launching and tracking satellites?

I was just reminded when I saw the report that Trump signed the budget at JOINT BASE Andrews that the military has spent the last twenty years consolidating domains.

Although this is about Afghanistan and not the space force, it's pretty consistent with military industrial complex empire bullshit that space force is destined to be.

Im sure there will be revelations about it in the coming years that closely parallel the kind of waste and insanity that this does.

My prediction.

How many people will be in the space force?

200.

Budget?

$40 million

Yeah we totally needed a new service with about as many employees as a small Walmart. Trump is not a serious person.

Who will be in charge of the space force?

The secretary of the Air Force.

This is nothing but a vanity project

Consistency is the rationale.  Either keep land, sea, air, and space apart or put them together.  I don't care.

You're just so determined to make believe anything Trump does must be bad.  The TDS is unreal.

Space force is duplicative of existing services and thus is a waste of money. Fal agreed as much in past posts. I’m not not going to dig for it though.

Creating a bunch of letter head and redundant arms of government won’t advance space science in any way. It’s hard to believe that Trump voters are all of a sudden pro government expansion. Well, not hard to believe really, just another example of TDS.

Exactly, in the same way all the services have duplication with each other.  I'd be fine with combining all the services into one.
