    Either by paying up and shutting up or by owning the factories themselves you’d lose a bunch of money, so not sure that’s the way to tackle it

      I mean, paying billions for things that will probably never be used in any meaningful capacity is not a foreign concept to the military. They do it all the time.

          It’s second best. The best is not paying and never needing it.
