We have talked a lot about the cost of building ships for the US Navy, but that’s just the beginning. The cost of operating these ships year over year adds up. Do you have any idea how much an aircraft carrier costs to operate each year? #NotWhatYouThink

The reason the zumwalt is the cheapest is because it's mostly used for testing, and isn't deployed as often as other ships, If it was a fully deployed ship, the cost would be somewhere around 170 million per year, which is still very good for a ship that size.

@@hevi2866 here in Italy free healthcare (when you got it, for some check you must wait over a year) is 53% of the total expenses (similar to 53% of federal budget).
