And paying $600,000 per job saved, with much of it going to an Israeli company (who now owns the rights to the A-10 and who would likely gain the most from the new spares business and servicing contracts) just to keep some aging A-10's flying at a bunch of Air National Guards units (the Air Force stopped flying A-10's some time ago, transferring them all to the Guard units, so they're not even part of our first-line-of-defense any more), do you think that would be a good use of taxpayer's money?
