Time to start studying a bit of economics here. But in terms of national budget policy, the claim that the F-35 is creating jobs is completely wrong. The F-35 is not creating jobs. The F-35 is destroying jobs. Thats because with federal borrowing capped, with increased taxes on the super-rich off the table, more money for the F-35 is going to come from cutting domestic spending - like Social Security checks - or raising taxes on the middle class. Cutting Social Security checks and raising taxes on the middle class to pay for the F-35 would destroy more jobs than the F-35 creates.
