The US Senate Monday passed a mammoth 648 billion dollar defense policy bill

$648 Billion dollars… I have a really hard time wrapping my mind around that much money. I was recently reading about the B-2 bomber planes, which are ridiculously advanced technology. Apparently they cost $1.2 billion per plane. Maybe they just want 600 planes? For comparison, consider Sept. 11 cost only $500,000.
