Biden $6.8 Trillion Budget: Rapid Military Development?

The military proposed budget is out and its quiet remarkable. China's military is growing faster and I think our competitive edge should be our natural strengths such as innovation and entrepreneurship to rapidly create new technologies that provide a competitive position. On the battlefield we have opportunity to put in place entry digital era technology many other nations will have a hard time copying for maybe 15 years because they are not at that level (copying is different).

China has some of our exiting foundations but is still missing key components that would match the broader prior groundwork through our own economic history. Meaning we structurally created our nation through a number of generations of entrepreneurial spirit and natural business development. 

While China grew rapidly it did so through forced infrastructure (i.e. top down) that hasn't yet found its solid natural footing (i.e. all the small things connect to it.). It means it is not optimized as well as ours. To match our new and existing infrastructure would take time and if we press the gas, just like in MI (Thank you Rino-Dino compromise and critical thinkers in the world. 🙇), we could potentially create a buffer in technology disparity.

(A balance between industry knowledge exposure and protecting new discoveries until industry has turned prototypes to scalable manufacturing. This is why selling information is not appropriate and could be seen as selling out ones nation! No espionage allowed. In case some of our officials are unaware its illegal! No?)

That doesn't mean that numbers don't play a part but when and if you have a ground breaking technology you may find that the opposition has no viable alternatives and/or sustainable defenses. In other words, throwing money at it is one thing but using it in a way that maximizes its outcomes is a government-industry-craftwork affair that can lead to market and military dominance.

If you put the right people in the right places it will impact the strategic implementation of newer high priority objectives. Bridging the theory to ground based innovation is difficult without a solid theoretical explanation of primary transactions and motivations that lead to constructive root discovery by proper resource allocation (Maybe Not? 🤷)

So how does one create synergistic value in a way that could potentially impact multiple industries at the same time through rapid product development? Turn page.......oh poo the next chapter hasn't been written yet.
