US attorney in Washington DC moves to dismiss charges against David Hearn, telling court that documents indicated ‘damage was the result of flawed installation’
When Russia invaded Ukraine and their tractor factories retooled to make tanks, their GDP dropped tenfold. Because a tractor is worth ten times as much as a tank.
But the people who put their boots on and go to work and weld metal shit…continued to put their boots on and go to work and weld metal shit.
There’s a couple Ohio senators that represent one of the few places that welds military-grade armor in the US that would strongly disagree with that assessment.
There’s a reason the army gets more tanks than they know what to do with, and part of that reason is maintaining expertise that takes decades to develop.
Money is funny.

what tractor is worth ten times as much as what tank?!
I believe the point was that a tractor’s economic output is 10x a tanks, not the initial cost of each.
A tank’s economic output is zero. A tractor is infinitely more beneficial.
