I love it when coastal media dipshits, who have no stake in the game, encourage other people to essentially destroy themselves. Its always astonishing to see.
The astonishing thing to see is the people actually acting upon that encouragement.

Ford built vehicles for the Nazis and also opposed American involvement in WWII.

How would it cause inflation?
Look at it in a supply vs demand way.
More supply and less demand = lower prices
More demand and less supply = higher prices.
Give everyone $5K and the demand for products go through the roof with people competing to get the low supply/ inventory of a whatever product.

Good: DOGE not just talking about but also exposing, for all to see, the robbery of the Taxpayer.
The Bad and Ugly x1000

BAD: The slapdash way probationary employees were let go, only to find that they really needed the employees (e.g., the nuclear material handlers)
UGLY: Telling probationary employees that they were terminated due to "performance" when it had nothing to do with the reason for their termination.

Turtle may be voting against the nominees, but he will still vote conservative on legislation. Let's ride him out until the end of his term. He either doesn't run for reelection or he gets primaried out.
No need to have another liberal Senator to have to fight with.

distinctly remember people going around, trying to gather money to buy vests and other gear shipped overseas. I probly got the engagement mixed up.
Around the beginning of OIF There were some people buying non-issued armor because they didn't trust the military issued ceramic plate inserts that went in the IBA.

I also remember families of the servicemen sending them bullet proof vests during Desert Storm, because of the flack vests there were being issued over there.
Small arms fire really wasn't as big of an issue during Desert Storm. Scud missiles and land mines were our biggest threat. You could also say that the Patriots knocking SCUDs out of the sky only to fall on or around us was.:lol:
Vehicle accidents, especially along Tap-line road (MSR Dodge) were the number one cause of death and injury among US Troops.
We only wore Flak Jackets when clearing bunkers and mine fields.
During OIF we wore our issued IBA and placed our flack jackets and sandbags on the floorboards and or strapped to the doors of our non-up armored vehicles. We used hillbilly armor until the real up-armor became available to us.
MRAPs were just starting to cycle into country as we left in '05. By the time we got to Afghanistan in 2012, MRAPs had totally replaced Hummers as the primary troop transport for off FOB missions and Hummers were not even allowed to leave the wire.
TL/DR US Troops are some pretty resilient and innovative people. You could give us the latest and greatest and we will still find a way to improve or expand upon our issued equipment. :usa:

Friend of mine was an MLB player for the Tigers and Padres,.He was also a hitting coach for the A's, White Sox and Giants. He told me that as a player he had to pay luxury tax in every city that he played in and for every game that he was present for. If he didn't travel, then he didn't have to pay the tax.
