Pentagon to destroy $1B worth of ammunition because their inventory system sucks.

Any small arms ammo should be required to be sold through the CMP.
Sadly, I can’t see the present Commie in Chief going for such a logical and American thing to do.

And we know the government will just now BUY MORE (at our expense).. and we wonder why there is a ammo shortage.
It’s the fucking military. How is it possible to have an “excess of ammunition”???
Because ammunition in the military context is not just small arms ammo. It includes consumables like missiles with a much more finite service life.
So, if I was a conspiracy theorist, I would think they were doing this on purpose… Ammo prices are getting too close to normal.
The government needs money and destroys something we would happily buy.
This only makes sense with fiat currency.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
