Star Wars: It's About the Money

Reality Checks

"Let's get real. We all know that if anyone ever attacks America, the bomb 
is going to be delivered by a suitcase, a car or a truck, or in a boat. 
It's not going to come from a missile, because you can track where a 
missile comes from and retaliate. We all know that we're lobbying for these 
programs because they make us money. We don't care whether they'll ever 
work, or even be useful. We care that the dollars come our way." —An 
unnamed missile and space division employee at Lockheed Martin, quoted in 
The Christian Science Monitor
