In reply to Naomi.

The F 35 project for the armed forces has cost $700 billion more than originally contracted, or enough to provide $40,000 in services for every veteran in the country.
There are 33,000 homeless veterans in the United States. The cost overruns on this one project would amount to enough money to purchase a $2 million dollar house for each homeless veteran and still leave $600 billion left over.
