Help me understand why we have money for a gigantic ballroom and to give ICE electric gloves, but we can't afford decent food for sailors risking their lives off the coast of Iran.

Part of it is that the military isn’t allowed to repair a lot of contracted equipment and most of the stuff used to cook isn’t working. It takes weeks for the contractor to send out a repairman. Not too sure for actual food, but surely reserves gotta be running pretty low, it’s been months

It’s called priorities. We can’t afford everything we want, so we choose the important things

Tf does that have to do with anything? We have the largest Navy in the world. The largest and second largest Air Force in the world. And you think time zones is why we can't resupply the ship?

So you're telling me that its okay that sailors are trying to off themselves by jumping off the ship? That its okay they're eating half rations that contain grey meat? What a fucking joke that you decided to cop out with "everything happens for a reason just trust gods plan". Just say you don't know how to connect the two next time. Coward.

Id imagine making sure the soldiers who are overseas are more of a priority to make sure they're well fed and taken care of is more of a priority than supplying the secret police with shock gloves bc their fingers are too fat to fit around a tazer.

No you're giving me a cop out answer. Your initial comment stated it had to do with timezones. Your reply does not explain the correlation between timezones. So try again.

Im not. Im asking you to explain the correlation between timezones and resupplying ships. Instead of explaining it you have given me two cop out answers of "its gods plan".
