China is continuing to BUILD it's military BECAUSE of the size of the US military. So you're wrong there too.

It depends on troop levels. I worked as a DOD contractor from 2014-2020 and in most cases made less money than the federal employees I was working alongside. When troops levels were low like in 2003 and 2001 as the two wars started, contractors could demand significantly higher money as military personnel levels were way lower due to the cutbacks of the Clinton Administration. As the troop levels rose, the contractor salaries decreased over time. I remember a recruiter calling me up in 2018 asking if I was interested in a $90k salary position in Afghanistan. I informed him I made more than that as an E-5 when I deployed to the same location back in 2011 when you added in benefits, allowances, base pay, and hazardous duty and hardship pay. I get that it's trendy to "hate" on contractors but the truth is they fill critical gaps in a lot of areas and bring expertise that the military can't generate on its own. You're not going to convince an IT specialist to join the military when he can make 3x the salary in the private sector, the only way you get him to work on your stuff is to pay him accordingly.

It's time for Bill to rename this segment of his show from "New Rule" to "New Strawman Arguments."

The enemy is also left undefined in the original Top Gun. I still agree with Bill about unity but just saying, that is a Top Gun trademark, not a new thing.

One of the few voices left that hasn't been totally captured by either side. Great job, Bill.

I love when he slams both sides. This one had a lot of good lines in it

As someone who has worked on the JSF program I can tell you it's hardly a failure. Japan, Norway, Denmark, Germany, Italy, UK, Canada, Turkey, Australia, Belgium, Finland, Poland and South Korea have all taken a interest in acquiring the aircraft. Most have already taken deliveries. The F-35 had many issues just like any other program. It's a completely different kind of aircraft than all other fighters and many pilots had trouble adjusting. Today the fighter is a deadly weapon and has no adversaries.

NATO members like Germany, Norway, UK, Belgium and others buy the planes the US tell them to buy, because they are not buying what they themselves need, but what the US need to have deployed in other countries and also get paid for it. Since all these countries have spent billions each on the planes, they can only hope the planes work as advertised.

My man hit it out of the park with this one. I’m a former Navy man and a believer in national defense (done smartly). I saw the original Top Gun right out of Navy bootcamp and thought it was cheesy fun. 35 years later I feel exactly the same about part 2. More cheese. Meanwhile people out here ready to give it an Oscar. And yes, I too recognized no clear enemy was ever identified as if it didn’t matter. And Bill is spot on…because it doesn’t to all the rubes out there. This is not the same America I grew up in. I give us even odds surviving as a nation.

Great take by Maher, but it's worth noting the MIG's in the original Top Gun were from an unnamed country as well.

I had never seen top gun. We were thinking about going and seeing Maverick but decided I should see top gun first. I fell asleep after 20 minutes and we never went to see Maverick.

If Top Gun 2 came out in 2008, it would have never reached a billion dollars in sales, but because it came out in this era, tells you what people actually want to see.

This is the most on point new rules I’ve ever seen. Especially the pentagon. My father worked for them for 30 years. He was never to discuss or write anything about the known problems of equipment. Even when he would bring up that if there was a solution it should be part of the content of the manual because it could save lives. He was told no because there were no issues with whatever it may have been, because contractors couldn’t lose there contracts that were all no bid contracts. Acres of trillions of dollars graveyards of defective goods. Also said if I ever wanted to know why we would invade a country, publicly or non public, look to see what natural resource they had , rather it be drugs, Coca plants to opium fields, oil, and everything in between. In closing I was raised to NEVER trust the government and never leave a hard copy. Lol.

I have to respectfully disagree with Maher's argument at the end. The real reason why there is no named villain in "Top Gun: Maverick" is not because we can't agree as a country, but rather because the USA no longer has a de facto monopoly on the market for the film industry. They have to worry about Europe, China, Japan, and Russia among others to sell their films. By naming Russia or China, they would be closing themselves to a major world market.

except for the fact the studio basically said fuck you to China and left in the Jacket scene with the Taiwanese flag. It's true when they shot the film it was that attitude and about not alienating foreign markets...and quite rightly I think. We should be promoting dialog and openness with even the worst countries. If we all close off then this is what we get. Anyway, it's now swinging the other way where western production companies are starting to turn their backs on the Chinese market simply because it's way too much of a hassle dealing with their (purposely) ambiguous censorship guidelines.

the great thing about the defence budgets, is that if don't spend enough, you don't get to spend anything ever again. unlike social spending, which never achieves its aim but always gets more money, way more than defence
