OT What does a Tomohawk missile really cost?

They keep saying a million dollars, or a little less, but does that

What is the marginal cost of another missile?

It's hard to believe anything costs a million dollars after there
is an assembly line of sorts.

Yes, millions but you can bet the corporation that makes them hides
all it's profit in a dummy store front in Switzerland to avoid US
Taxes. Just like hundreds even thousands of corporations now. Yes,
GE, GM, Phizer and all the drug companies, Google, IBM, all the big
ones.


By the way, that amounts to 1.3 TRILLION! a year the government don't
get. Now you wonder why the economy is bad and there are no jobs?

Why do you believe the US government is should get paid a dime on
money made elsewhere that has already been taxed where it was earned?


I bet Comrade Obama and all his rich pals hide their money where they don't
have to pay a lot of taxes on it. Trusts,offshore accounts,other dodges.
Heck,half of Comrade Obama's advisors didn't even pay their taxes.

How much in back taxes do federal employees owe?
