What a waste of money. I mean REALLY! Whatever happened to "seek out and destroy the enemy in ground combat, take and hold ground"?
Lets just give EVERYBODY an X Box. Better yet . . . sell live feeds and tell the 13 YOs its a game.
Are we going to need bumper stickers that read,
"Ban the drone. Make the world safe for conventional warfare."
bad, Bad, BAD idea.
