What I don't understand though is how that much could even be spent without it being visible. $6.5 trillion buys a hell of a lot of toys. You could literally build one thousand Nimitz-class aircraft carriers with that much money and still have a few bucks left over to spare. How could anyone spend that kind of money without it being noticed that all this extra stuff was being purchased?
