Exactly what is China going to do about oh, an AIRCRAFT CARRIER, where they knew exactly where the plane fell, so the Chinese would have very little time, anyway, they would probably just go down to the plane and load it with C4 if they couldn't get the thing out of the water.

we recognize, as a society, that art and education are important.

And yet... the entire budget for the national endowment of the arts could only buy two F-35 airplanes. Notwithstanding the cost of maintenance and officer training.

It's ridiculous, no matter how you slice it.

I have no horse in that race, but the football team does generate income from admissions to games.
Depending on your area, the football team could pay its own way or more.

I suppose that is possible but I don't think HS football games charge money.
I am into music big time and never went to ANY HS football game.
Well I did PLAY when I was 13 but ended up in hospital with broken patella.
Took up badminton instead, won my little college badminton championship. WOW was I impressed.....

I grew up in a town/high school that did not have a football team. I realized later in life that the reason for this was we didn't have any rich alumni to donate money for the equipment, coaching, field maintenance etc.

So.. no money for sports, but at least us normal citizens can feel protected by a vast excess of military bloat.

Really? Handy like the dozen donuts/day-eating cop in a foot race. I'm skeptical.
