    And I’m not even sure that calculation applies to the modern age. With supersonic missiles and drones, a massive carrier might just be a very big vulnerability

      that’s a significant point and ties into my point about my GRF being build around a logical fallacy about modern warfare. not only is the american military a huge slush fund, it’s built around assumptions that may simply not make sense anymore. who knows what the future holds, but things are about to get weird. i have hope that enough of us who believe in a peaceful and just world will be able to harness the power of the people to forge a better world than the one we currently live in
