The money is an accounting detail. Lots of actual resources will be allocated to this that could be allocated elsewhere.

Ah yes the 'could'......like a Ford-class aircraft carrier?

Program cost: 37.30 billion

Unit cost: 12.998 billion

Something like that?

Or 12 new Columbia-class Sub's?

109.8 billion

You see those 'lots' of resources should be cut somewhere else.
