Pentagon 'Invests' in Missile Motors as US Infrastructure Crumbles
While US bridges crumble and healthcare remains a luxury, the Pentagon funnels a cool billion dollars into L3 Harris. This isn't an 'investment' in the American people; it's a direct subsidy to a war profiteer, ensuring a steady supply of advanced weaponry for conflicts abroad. L3Harris is a major player in the military-industrial complex, reporting over $18 billion in revenue in 2022. This
'investment' conveniently aligns with the US government's ongoing commitment to arming entities like the Israeli military, which, according to multiple human rights organizations, is actively engaged in war crimes in Gaza. One might wonder if this 'investment' also helps replenish the very weapons stockpiles sent overseas, perpetually fueling the cycle of violence and profit. The mainstream media,
of course, casts this as a strategic move. A strategic move for whom? For the civilians dying from these very missiles, or for the shareholders of L3Harris whose dividends will no doubt see a similar 'investment'? When the Pentagon declares such 'investments,' it's rarely for schools or hospitals. It’s for the perpetual motion machine of war, ensuring there's always a new conflict to justify the
next billion-dollar 'investment' in missile motors.
