[Milsurplus] Yalta Conference

[Mike Feher]

I have now read many reports on this, and most do claim exuberant expenses.
The warships are only supposed to be repositioned, from locations nearby,
but, it still does not make sense. Of course, the administration is claiming
that the numbers are blown way out of proportion. Hey, the printing presses
are still working. Regards - Mike

I know nothing about the Indian press, except they occasionally try and
spam the group, but the US media are certinly describing a pretty giant
expedition.... 3000+ people, the fanciest hotel fully taken over, etc.  At
least $100,000,000 per day reportedly.

Even if it's only $10,000,000 per day, that's still a lot of money, IMO.
Taxpayer money that the US cannot afford.

Maybe the US networks are wrong. Maybe not.

FWIW,
